Abstract

Objective: To comment on the clinical characteristics of gingivitis in pregnant women at the obstetric department of Bach Mai hospital - Hanoi in 2019-2020. Research method: cross-sectional description. Results: Mainly, pregnant women had degree 2 gingivitis (93.6%). The level of gingivitis with GI and plaque levels with PI increases gradually with gestational age. The level of gingivitis also increases by the age of the pregnant woman. The level of gingivitis in the anterior teeth (GI index = 1.52) was found heavier than that of the posterior ones (GI index = 1.25). Conclusion: Most pregnant women suffer gingivitis. It is necessary to strengthen and integrate knowledge of oral health care into the reproductive health care program and conduct deeper and broader studies on gingivitis and periodontitis in pregnant women to confirm and propose preventive measures.
