Tijdens de zwangerschap kunnen hormonale veranderingen het tandvlees gevoeliger maken. Dit kan leiden tot sneller bloeden en ontstekingen. Een preventieve controle bij de mondhygiënist helpt om klachten te voorkomen en uw mondgezondheid in balans te houden.
Hormones and inflammation
Door een verhoogde hoeveelheid zwangerschapshormonen, zoals progesteron, reageert het tandvlees sneller op tandplak. Het kan rood, gezwollen of gevoelig aanvoelen — dit wordt ook wel ‘zwangerschapsgingivitis’ genoemd. Deze irritatie komt vaak voor tussen de tweede en achtste maand van de zwangerschap en is meestal tijdelijk, mits goed behandeld door tandarts zwangerschap Den Haag.
Periodontitis and risk of preterm birth.
Onderzoek toont aan dat vrouwen met ernstige tandvleesontstekingen (parodontitis) een verhoogd risico hebben op vroeggeboorte of een baby met een laag geboortegewicht. Goede mondverzorging en regelmatige controles helpen dit risico aanzienlijk te verkleinen.
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.
