Abstract
Maternity changes a woman's body and can have an effect on fetal oral health. Prenatal counseling can improve oral health of both mother and child. Maternal diet, self-care, and lifestyle can lead to permanent changes in the offspring's oral health. Transmission of maternal oral microflora and use of fluorides are important in a baby's oral health early in life.Entities:
