PRINZIDENT · PregnancyWhy prevention matters now
Hormones change the gums: we keep inflammation under control
Estrogen and progesterone affect blood circulation, immune response and saliva composition. This can lead to gum bleeding, swelling and rapid plaque formation.
Your immune system works differently during pregnancy. Plaque reacts more quickly with inflammation, gum bleeding becomes more frequent and deep pocket formations can occur. Early prophylaxis prevents temporary irritations from becoming permanent tissue damage.
At the same time, the saliva balance changes: pH value and protective function decrease, which favors caries. We compensate for this with remineralizing varnishes, an individual fluoride plan and tips for tooth-healthy snacks.
- Pregnancy gingivitis affects almost every second pregnant woman. Untreated, it can become chronic and increase the risk of premature birth.
- Our professional cleaning specialists use soft polishers, airflow with erythritol and disinfecting gels to calm gums and reduce bacterial load.
- We document changes digitally, so we can see within weeks whether measures are working or whether periodontitis is threatening.
Professionelle Zahnreinigung speziell für Schwangere
Wir planen Hygiene-Sitzungen so, dass Sie sich rundum wohlfühlen: kurze Intervalle, sanfte Instrumente, entlastende Lagerung und viel Ruhe für Fragen. Unsere Dentalhygienikerinnen zeigen, wie Sie zu Hause mit Interdentalbürsten, Soft-Picks und xylithaltigen Produkten Plaque niedrig halten.
Wichtig: Wir stimmen Ihren Prophylaxeplan eng mit Gynäkologie und Hausarzt ab, dokumentieren Medikamente und geben schriftliche Empfehlungen, für Sie und Ihr familiäres Umfeld.

Tips for Everyday Life, Nutrition & Medications
Morning Sickness & Acid Protection: Rinse with water or a xylitol solution after vomiting before brushing your teeth. We recommend gentle enamel protection products and remineralization gels that stabilize pH value and mineral balance.
Snacks & Drinks: Focus on calcium-rich, low-sugar options like nuts, cheese cubes, vegetable sticks or natural yogurt. We give you a compact info map with recipe ideas that keep blood sugar stable and prevent cravings.
Medications & Local Anesthesia: Local anesthetics with articaine are safe in the second trimester. Pain therapy uses paracetamol, while ibuprofen is only recommended until week 28. We coordinate every active ingredient with your treating physicians.
Recall After Birth: Within the first 12 weeks after delivery, we check the gums again, treat possible erosive damage and plan your baby's oral health, including mini professional cleaning and fluoride toothpaste recommendation.
