Prenatal Oral Health
Caring for Baby Begins with Caring for You
A mother’s oral health is more than just her own concern—it’s foundational to her baby’s development and long-term well-being. During pregnancy, the mouth becomes a powerful gateway to the rest of the body, and imbalances in the oral microbiome can influence outcomes for both mom and baby.
Research shows that untreated dental issues like cavities and gum disease can increase the risk of preterm birth, low birth weight, and even infections that impact fetal development. Harmful oral bacteria can also be passed from caregiver to child, setting the stage for early childhood caries—even before the first tooth appears.
That’s why we offer salivary microbial testing and personalized care for expectant mothers.
Our approach identifies and addresses harmful bacteria early, reducing risks and helping you prepare for a healthy delivery—and a thriving baby.
