During pregnancy, hormonal changes can make the gums more sensitive. This can lead to easier bleeding and inflammation. A preventive check-up with the dental hygienist helps prevent problems and keep your oral health in balance.

Hormones and inflammation

Due to increased levels of pregnancy hormones, such as progesterone, the gums react more quickly to plaque. They may feel red, swollen, or sensitive — this is also known as ‘pregnancy gingivitis’. This irritation often occurs between the second and eighth month of pregnancy and is usually temporary, provided it is properly treated by a pregnancy dentist in The Hague.

Periodontitis and risk of preterm birth.

Research shows that women with severe gum inflammation (periodontitis) have an increased risk of premature birth or a baby with a low birth weight. Good oral hygiene and regular check-ups help to significantly reduce this risk.

Tooth decay during pregnancy.

Eating habits can change during pregnancy—for example, eating more often or craving sweets. This increases the risk of cavities. Nausea or vomiting can also damage the enamel due to stomach acid, making teeth more sensitive. It’s important to pay extra attention to brushing and rinsing during pregnancy.
