Oral health program for future moms

An interesting oral health program for future moms It has been applied in a community center in La Rioja, so it is intended that all future moms in the region can receive free basic dental care. The truth is that we have been surprised with this initiative, it will not only be carried out in a center, the program will be applied throughout the Rioja community, benefiting all pregnant women.

It is estimated that up to 3,000 future moms may receive dental assistance that will include a diagnosis to assess oral status, gums, mucous membranes or teeth. Mouth cleaning will also be provided by topical fluoride and rinses. All program benefits are offered in a phased manner and distributed in the three trimesters of pregnancy. There is a great concern of the Riojan Government for the health of future mothers in the region, some health problems suffered by pregnant women are related to the mouth, one of the most frequent problems is the periodontal disease in which the gums become inflamed and They bleed In fact, some of the problems are more favored in the face of hormonal changes and the change in diet that women perform because of their status.

It is expected that by the middle of next year, all the centers of La Rioja will provide the oral health program, something that we would love to be seconded in Spain.
