Oral mucosal diseases, pregnancy gingivitis, pyogenic granulomasAbstract
Oral mucosal diseases during pregnancy, such as pregnancy gingivitis, pyogenic granulomas, oral candidiasis, and herpes simplex virus infections, are common due to hormonal and immune changes. These conditions can cause discomfort and complications for both mother and fetus. Prevention through good oral hygiene, regular dental visits, and proper nutrition is essential. Treatment strategies focus on safe, non-invasive therapies, including antimicrobial agents and antifungal treatments. Timely management ensures both maternal and fetal health during pregnancy.
