During my pregnancy, I kept up with regular dental cleanings and careful brushing because my dentist talked about how gum health ties to inflammation. I noticed less bleeding and milder morning sickness. The science isn’t settled, but maintaining periodontal health was a practical, low-risk step I could take that might influence inflammation and potentially preeclampsia risk, always discuss with your OB and dentist.

Maintaining healthy gums may lower overall inflammation; some studies hint at reduced preeclampsia risk, but evidence isn’t conclusive.
