Background: pregnancy as a systemic condition causes changes in the functioning of human body as a whole and specifically in the oral cavity and it also is considered as a stressful condition. These changes may favor the increase of oxidative stress. Aim: The aim of this study was to estimate the level of marker of oxidative stress (malondialdehyde) and antioxidant (uric acid) in saliva of pregnant compared to non-pregnant women and to assess the gingival health condition in both groups. Additionally, unstimulated salivary flow rate was determined in both groups. Subjects, materials and methods: The study group consisted of sixty pregnant women, they were divided into three equal groups according to trimester (20 pregnant women for each trimester), and they were selected randomly from the Maternal and Child Health Care Centers in Baghdad city, their age range was 20-25 years. In addition to 60 newly married non-pregnant women as a control group and matched with age. Collection of unstimulated salivary samples was carried out under standardized conditions. Dental plaque and gingival indices were used for recording the oral hygiene and gingival health respectively. Salivary flow rate was measured then salivary samples were analyzed to determine the level of salivary antioxidant (uric acid) and lipid peroxidation biomarker of oxidative stress (malondialdehyde). Result: The data analysis of the present study found that the level of salivary malondialdehyde was higher among pregnant women compared to non-pregnant controls with statistically significant difference (p<0.05), while salivary uric acid was statistically significantly lower among the pregnant women compared to non-pregnant controls (p<0.05). Salivary analysis demonstrated that the salivary flow rate was statistically significantly lower among the pregnant women compared to non-pregnant controls (p<0.05). The values of plaque and gingival indices were higher among pregnant women compared to non-pregnant controls with statistically significant difference (p<0.05). The correlation of gingival index with plaque index in study and control group was significant (p<0.05), while with others variables were non-significant (p>0.05). Conclusion: The current study showed an increase in oxidative status in saliva during pregnancy that could affect gingival health which was also affected by oral hygiene.

Background: Although they are not life threatening, dental caries and periodontaldisease are the most predominant and widely spread oral diseases throughout theworld. The aims of the study included the investigation of the prevalence andseverity of dental caries, gingivitis and dental plaque in relation to gender,furthermore, nutritional status was assessed in relation to oral health condition(dental caries).Materials and Methods: This oral health survey was conducted among primaryschool children aged 9 years old in Dewanyiah city in Iraq. The total samplecomposed of 600 child (320 males and 280 females) selected randomly fromdifferent school in Dewanyiah city. Diagnosis of dental caries was according tothe criteria described by WHO (1987). Plaque index of Silness and Loe (1964)was used for plaque assessment, gingival index of Loe and Silness (1963) wasfollowed for recording gingival health condition. Nutritional status was assessedaccording to body mass index (BMI) indicator using anthropometric measurement(height and weight).Results: Results showed that the prevalence of dental caries was 85% for 9 year-oldschool children. Regarding primary and permanent dentition, dental caries washigher among females compared to males with statistically significant difference(P<0.05) for primary dentition, on the other hand, males showed higher values offilled surfaces compared to females with statistically significant difference(P<0.05) for primary dentition and highly significant difference (P<0.01) forpermanent dentition. Finding of this study revealed that 100% of the children hadgingival inflammation. Furthermore, the values of plaque and gingival indiceswere higher among males compared to females with statistically highly significantdifferences (P<0.01). In current study, the prevalence of malnutrition described bythe BMI indicator was 5.3%. For total samples no significant difference wasrecorded in dmfs /DMFS values among wasting and well nourished children(P>0.05).Conclusion: A high prevalence of dental caries and gingivitis were recorded.Improvement in the prevention educational programs is needed among schoolchildren.

Background: Preterm birth is considered as the main cause neonatal mortality and morbidity[1]. The rate of preterm birth ranges from 5% to 18% of babies born in different countries[2].However, prevent, predict and delay this health condition is almost unsuccessful[2]. Millions of babies are born preterm and this number is rising[2]. Infectious diseases and local and systematic inflammation is most contributing factor to multifactorial etiology of this health condition[3]. The pregnant women are more susceptible to periodontal disease as it is the most prevalent chronic infectious disease in adult population[4]. There are 57 health condition related to periodontitis[5].The physical and hormonal alternation make the pregnant women more vulnerable to the periodontal disease. Relatively high prevalence of periodontitis during pregnancy found in different population, especially socio-economically disadvantaged women[4]. Periodontitis found to be a risk indicator for preterm birth outcome[6].Clinical trails were conducted to assess the effect of periodontal treatment during pregnancy on reducing these outcomes[7-25]. Objective: To assess the effect of different periodontal interventions during pregnancy on preterm birth outcome. Methods: A systematic review was conducted according to PRISMA guidelines[26], searching Cochrane Library, Pubmed and Embase databases up to 10 December, 2020. PICOS (Population, Intervention, Comparison and Outcomes, study design) framework was used as a search strategy tool. Intervention include scaling and root planning (SRP), Control oral hygiene instructions (OHI), Inclusion criteria were studied in pregnant women, including randomized controlled trials with the aim of assessing the effect of any periodontal treatments on preterm birth outcomes. Main outcome was perform birth(<37 gestational week). The data were extracted from two authors and statistical analyses carried out using Review Manager (RevMan).

The Relationship

Pregnancy is a natural biological process in women’s lives. However, in this period, physiological changes occur in the body of the pregnant woman who also reflects on oral health. Studies reinforce the relationship between the health condition of the oral cavity and the body’s overall health, as well as their implications for the fetus. Thus highlights the importance of Dentistry in health care during pregnancy. However, dental care for pregnant women requires qualification for them to be selected the safest agents. It is necessary, therefore, the formation of dentists able to provide differentiated services for pregnant women, including preventive and curative actions for to promote oral health of the mother and, consequently, the baby. This article has for objective to revise available literature of the odontological treatment during the period of the pregnancy, demystifying dental care pregnant women, in order to make possible clarifications to base the clinical behaviors in scientific evidences.

Spread Of Infection

Risk of COVID-19 in pregnant woman is the same as that in the general population but as pregnancy is a state of immunosuppression along with other physiological respiratory and immune changes. A pregnant woman might show more severe symptoms of COVID-19 infection. Health care employees should be permitted to meet pregnant women through managed home visits and with help of teleconsultations. Mothers should follow meticulous hand hygiene, respiratory etiquettes and social distancing because they have key role in restricting spread of infection. Protein rich diet, vitamin C, vitamin D, zinc, calcium, iron and folic acid are very necessary components to be consumed by antenatal woman. It may help to protect mother and baby by having certain vaccines during pregnancy such as the influenza, tetanus and Tdap vaccines. Pregnant women with major risk of exposure/COVID-19 symptoms and no emergency obstetric issues should be stated for testing outside the hospital. Pregnant women without urgent obstetric issues awaiting results should stay at home to self-isolate. Those with emergency obstetric issues should be managed in labour room devoted to COVID-19 patients. Mode of delivery depends upon obstetrical indication and health condition of mother. Regular assessment of respiratory condition should be done during labour along with continuous electronic foetal monitoring. The WHO encourage mothers with COVID-19 to hold and breastfeed their babies because close connection is essential for new-born but to reduce risk of transmission temporary separation of new born from mother with confirmed or suspected COVID-19 is considered strongly.
