“…Complications during pregnancy and childbirth are among the leading causes of disease and death among women in reproductive age worldwide. 21 In the current study, less than a quarter (17.5%) reported adverse pregnancy outcomes, a recent study in Qassim also reported a similar prevalence of 17.9% 22 which was significantly associated with higher prevalence and severity of periodontal diseases in both studies. The evidence for such an association is increasing with the prevalence reported worldwide to be between 15% and 100%.…”

Pregnant women witness many changes in the body as well as in the oral cavity with many factors influencing these changes. This study evaluated the relationship between oral health status, perceptions, and pregnancy outcomes. Methods: A cross sectional study design was implemented to recruit a convenience sample of women attending Obstetrics and gynecology department in public hospitals in East and capital city of Saudi Arabia. To collect data, a validated self-administered questionnaire in English and Arabic was used. The questionnaire covered background information, perceived oral health status, and dental visits. Results: About 64.4% of the 481 women recruited had dental problems, 49.7% reported deterioration in their oral health during pregnancy, and 17.5% reported adverse pregnancy outcomes. Only 40.7% of pregnant women rated their oral health as good, and only 22% visited a dentist during their pregnancy. Dentists were the most common source of oral health information (44.1%), followed by social media (38.9%). Dental problems during pregnancy were significantly associated with adverse outcomes (P=0.007). Oral health perceptions of pregnant women, not visiting the dentist during pregnancy, and gingival problems were also significantly associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes (P=0.001). Those with fair to poor oral health were twice as likely to experience adverse pregnancy outcome. Those who intended to visit the dentist during their pregnancy but did not do so, as well as those who did not visit the dentist at all were 12 and 9 times more likely to experience adverse pregnancy outcomes respectively. Conclusion: Dental complaints during pregnancy, oral health perceptions, and a lack of dental visits were all linked to increased likelihood of adverse pregnancy outcomes. There is a need for interprofessional collaboration to dispel myths and encourage oral health care and regular dental visits during pregnancy.

Introduction: The stage of pregnancy involves different physiological variations that globally alter hormones, making a person's body the appropriate place for infections such as periodontal disease to develop. The objective of this study was to establish the prevalence relationship between periodontal disease and pregnant patients. Methods: articles not older than 5 years were examined, taking studies between 2017 and 2021, extracted from the main Pubmed, Science Direct, SCOPUS, Proquest and EBSCO databases, as well as for the development of the systematic review, the guidelines were followed. of PRISM. Results: For this work, different perspectives of both exclusion and inclusion were applied, for which several filters were passed, leaving 7 articles selected (n=1178). The different data found were passed through a process of extraction and subsequent ordering, following the standards of the study, as an analysis methodology, as well as the results. Conclusion: As a result, it was obtained that the prevalence of periodontitis in pregnant women is high, since in all the studies included in this investigation, percentages between 50% and 70% of prevalence in pregnant women were evidenced, this being a risk factor. This is important for pregnancy complications, as the newborn may show low birth weight or the mother a premature delivery, in addition to the physiological factors of a pregnant woman compromising the immune system, leaving her more prone to suffering this type of dental pathology.

“…Inflammation of the gingival tissue is more common in women with a history of hormonal contraception compared to other types of contraception. The hormones progesterone and estrogen also impact decreasing the response of the gingival tissue and oral cavity and changes in the population of microorganisms and feelings of discomfort in the mouth (Alrumayh et al, 2021).…”

Using birth control (BC) can affect gingiva tissue, increasing the risk of developing gingivitis among women of reproductive age. Based on the Central Bureau of Statistics census, in 2021 61,77% of women in their reproductive age have used contraception and birth control in East Java. This study aims to find the correlation between the history and birth control usage and the incidence of gingivitis among pregnant women in Ambulu Public Health Center. This study uses a cross-sectional method with an analytical observational approach on pregnant women who visited the Dental Outpatient and received dental examinations in April and May of 2022. Thirty respondents were gathered with a history of birth control usage and evaluated using the dentist's Periodontal Index (PI). The results show that nine respondents (30%) had no history of using BC, two respondents (6.6%) used BC pills, ten respondents (33.3%) used 1-month injection BC, five respondents (16.6%) used 3-month injection BC, two respondents (6.6%) used implants BC and two respondents (6.6%) used IUD. From the cross table, one respondent (3.3%) was in the normal category, 1 respondent (3.3%) was in the simple gingivitis category, 15 respondents (50%) were in the early destructive periodontal disease category, and 13 respondents (43.4%) were in the destructive periodontitis. The data are analyzed using Chi-square result, showing that the significant value is p = 0,049 (p<0,05), so it can be concluded there is a significant relation between history of birth control usage and incidence of gingivitis in Ambulu Public Health Center. Dental and oral examinations are highly recommended in routine as early detection of health problems among pregnant women.
