“…Table 2 shows that the average gestation age of mature infants at the time of birth was 38.5 ± 0.2 weeks, of premature infants with low body weight (LBW)-32.4 ± 1.3 weeks, of very low body weight (VLBW)-28.8 ± 0.6 weeks, and of extremely low body weight (ELBW)-27 ± 0.0 weeks. At the same time, changes in the average body weight in mature newborns remained in the range of 3.000 ± 117 g, in premature infants with LBW-1.927.3 ± 239.5 g, with VLBW-1.309.6 ± 128.6, and with ELBW-920 ± 55.2 g [11,12].…”

Intrauterine infections are an urgent problem of modern neonatology. One of the causes of intrauterine infective foetal lesions is physiological immunosuppression. The purpose of this study is to investigate the cytokine status in newborns infected with perinatal infections, depending on their body weight. The study examined 145 newborns. Taking into account their body weight, they were divided into 2 groups: main and secondary. The study was conducted in the immunological laboratory of the Medical Centre of Marat Ospanov West Kazakhstan Medical University in the city of Aktobe, with the determination of the level of IgM and IgG to the herpes simplex virus (HSV) types 1, 2, cytomegalovirus (CMV), and chlamydia using the MULTISKANASCENT analyser with the "Chemo" T system. The main results of this study are the predominance of the anti-inflammatory component in both normal weight and underweight infants, which is evidence of the Th-cell-mediated immune response prevalence. The applied value of this study lies in the possibility of applying its results in practice to obtain effective methods to counteract the occurrence and development of intrauterine infections.

“…In contrast to the results of our study, some studies have reported a significant association between dental decays and preterm labor. In a study conducted by Mattheus et al on 4309 pregnant women during 2009-2011, the results revealed that one in five women received dental services during pregnancy and the incidence of preterm labor was higher in these women (30). In a case-control study on 111 pregnant women, Márquez-Corona et al in 2019 found a significant relationship between the rate of preterm labor and the severity of dental disease (26).…”

Background: Preterm labor is defined as labor before 37 weeks of gestation, which is associated with neonatal mortality. Due to contradictory results of studies conducted on the relationship between preterm labor and dental decays and lack of research in this regard in Iran, the present study was conducted with the aim of evaluating the relationship between DMFT (decayed, missing, and filled teeth) index and preterm labor in pregnant women in Hamadan. Methods: This study is a case-control study. The total number of samples was 227 pregnant women studied in two groups, 114 women in case and 113 women in the control group. The data collection method was interview and examination and the data collection tool was a questionnaire consisting of three sections, including demographic, midwifery, and dental information. The data were analyzed through SPSS software version 16.0 using descriptive and analytical statistics, independent t test and chi-square and at the significance level of P<0.05. Results: The mean age of the subjects was 28.41 ± 6.26 years. The mean score of the DMFT index was 13.02 ± 6.20 in the case group and 10.70 ± 6.12 in the control group, indicating a statistically significant difference between the two groups (P = 0.005). The results showed that there was no significant relationship between DMFT index and preterm labor (P = 0.779). Conclusions: Based on the results of the study, the DMFT index is high in women with preterm labor, so providing necessary education before and during pregnancy by health service providers and mass media for pregnant women is essential to maintain and promote oral hygiene and reduce the complications of pregnancy.

“…Moore et al, in a large cohort study and a smaller case–control study, did not find any correlation between preterm birth and periodontal disease [ 62 , 63 ]. Lafaurie et al, in a case–control study, concluded that the presence of periodontal pockets was not a risk factor for preeclampsia, but they reported an association between periodontal pockets and premature rupture of membranes, low birth weight, and preterm birth [ 64 ].…”

Pregnancy and Dentistry: A Literature Review on Risk Management during Dental Surgical Procedures

et al. 2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Background: Pregnancy is a unique moment in a woman’s life, accompanied with several physiologic changes that have an impact on oral health. Aim of the study: The purpose of the present study was to conduct a critical review of published literature regarding pregnancy and dentistry, the most frequent oral diseases that are encountered during pregnancy, their correlation to adverse pregnancy events, and safe dental treatments that can be performed during pregnancy. Methods: A Medline/COCHRANE search was carried using specific keywords and MeSH terms, combined with the boolean operators “OR” and “AND”. Results: The search led to 146 publications including guidelines, meta-analyses, systematic and non-systematic reviews, published between 2000 and 2021. Discussion and conclusions: Due to the increased inflammatory and immune body response that characterizes pregnancy, periodontal conditions are often aggravated during pregnancy and periodontal disease encountered frequently in pregnant patients. There are conflicting study results in the literature regarding the association between periodontitis and adverse pregnancy outcomes. Periodontal treatment did not show a significant reduction in the adverse outcomes. Many dentists, often due to lack of information, are reluctant to provide dental treatment to pregnant women. However, preventive and restorative dental treatment is safe during pregnancy. Diagnostic radiographs may be performed after the first trimester if absolutely necessary. Analgesics (such as paracetamol) and anesthetics (such as lidocaine) are also considered safe. In case of infection, antibacterial drugs such as amoxicillin, ampicillin, and some cephalosporines and macrolides can also be prescribed. Organogenesis takes place in the first trimester, the time during which the fetus is susceptible to severe malformations (teratogenesis). The ideal time to perform dental treatment is the second trimester (week 17 to 28). However, acute pain or infections make the intervention of the dentist absolutely necessary and emergency treatment can be performed during the whole pregnancy period.

Periodontal condition is associated with adverse perinatal outcomes and premature rupture of membranes in low-income pregnant women in Bogota, Colombia: a case–control study

Abstract: Periodontal condition is a factor independent of other important risk factors for a perinatal adverse outcome and PRM. Prevention of periodontal disease should be included in preconception and prenatal care programs.
