A recent study reported in the Journal of Dental Reseach* looked at the mothers with high amounts of bacteria (mutans streptococci and lactobacilli) when they where pregnant to 2 years after their child was born.
Not surprisingly these mother's had children with increased early childhood decay.
Keep your teeth really clean for your child's sake!

Pregnancy Advice
Pregnancy is an important time to refocus and ensure you have good dental habits. Don't be fooled by the Old Wives' tale about losing a tooth with each pregnancy!
Pre Pregnancy Advice
Have a dental examination BEFORE you plan to get pregnant.
Important
Tell your dentist or any medical practitioner if you suspect you're pregnant. Certain medicines can affect a baby's developing teeth.
X-rays may not be recommended during pregnancy. Special care will be taken by your health practitioner if it is essential to have x-rays.
