PREGNANCY AND DENTAL CARE.❤️

A new journey for a woman as she embarks on a new milestone of her life!! 👣👣

But small tips and precautions would definitely make this journey comfortable.🤱

A human body undergoes a lot of changes during pregnancy and that leads to a lot of physically, emotionally and mentally..

Hormonal changes tend to allow a lot of oral and dental changes during this phase that would lead to new oral conditions that are treatable but under limited conditions by the doctor.

Before pregnancy.. make sure all your dental issues are addressed and treated so that you would not have to go through any peak episodes of pain during your 9months of pregnancy.

✔️Never skip your dental visits even during pregnancy...

✔️Always keep yourself hydrated and maintain good oral hygiene measures.

✔️Do not fail to get your periodic teeth cleaning procedures as these can avoid a lot of gums issues ( very common during pregnancy).

✔️Always keep your dentist informed about pregnancy and seek your gynaecologists advise before dental treatments.

✔️REMEMBER :
Dental treatments can be done during pregnancy!!

Second trimester ( 4 to 6 month) is safe for performing dental treatments.

Because:

During 1st 3 months, the baby's there is development of organs happening and baby .. NO X rays during this period!!

The last 3 months , uterus is very sensitive to external stimuli and an hazard for premature delivery.

✔️However, any emergency treatments acn always be conducted and your dentist will take care of the situation.

Hope that was helpful!!☺️☺️

HOW TO AVOID CAVITIES IN CHILDREN???

A question often asked by all parents when they pay a visit to the dentist.

Here are some small changes and habits that we need to change, adapt and avoid for a better and healthier way of life.🤔🤔

Taking care of teeth starts from the time the child is born.

When the child has no teeth, but still you have to clean up their gum pads.. Here's how you can do that.
Take a guaze and wrap it around ur index finger and then damp it with warm water and then gently clean the child's gum pads . This helps in maintaining a healthy and clean oral environment. 👌👌

Another important aspect is brushing your child's teeth once their teeth erupts.This can be done using an Infant tooth brush or a finger brush.
Fluoride tooth pastes are preferred as they have the ability to protect the teeth and prevent cavities. The amount of tooth paste also matters, for children below 2 years of age a grain size of tooth paste is sufficient, while for children above 3 years a pea sized amount of tooth paste is sufficient.🪥🪥

Always make sure you supervise your child while they are brushing the teeth and brush twice daily

Avoiding sugary foods, juices ,candies and even milk just before going to bed should be avoided as they can cause more decay of teeth as the oral cavity PH reduces at night creating a acidic environment that is more favorable for bacterial activity.🍭🍩🍪🍫🥛❌

As the proverb goes " A STITCH IN TIME SAVES NINE" .. make sure you visit your dentist once in 6 months for a check up.😇

Hope that was helpful...🙂🙂Some THURSDAY THOUGHTS!!

Keep smiling ,it costs nothing!!😊😊😊

Any habit to put to practice takes about 21 days!! Yes, heard of it right.. thr 21 day habit theory was first introduced by Dr Maxwell Maltz, a plastic surgeon.. He discovered that a patient who had for example a face operation would.take 31 days to get used to seeing their new face.
Also he had mentioned about this in a self help book by Dr Maxwell, called "Psycho cybernatics, A new way to get more living out of life",
Also Wendy wood, a psychologist from university of southern california has reffed to this in his studies about the way habits guide our behaviour.
So let's do something healthy to keep it health in well being this quarantine time..
So although the methods of maintaining oral hygiene take time to adapt the right techniques to practice.. now is the time you can practice it well without complaints!!
Go for it guys..
I wil be sharing informative texts and videos that u can follow to practice the right method of brushing, flossing.etc.
Stay healthy, stay safe.. practice social distancing..
