[Dental treatment during pregnancy].
Applying the basics of preventive dentistry at the primary level will broaden the scope of prenatal care. Dentists should encourage all patients of childbearing age to seek oral health counseling and examination as soon as they learn they are pregnant. Specific printed information on oral hygiene, plaque control, nutrition and tooth development should be available for pregnant patients. Emergency problem should be alleviated immediately. Indicated medications should not be with held because of pregnancy but patients must be informed of benefits and risks. Consultation with the patient's physician is always appropriate.
