For Your Information
Female Hormones
About three –quarters of periodontal office visits are made by woman, even though woman tend to take better care of their teeth than men. Hormone- influenced gingivitis appears in some adolescents, in some pregnant women, and is occasionally a side effect of the birth control medication.
Pregnancy
Hormonal changes during pregnancy can aggravate existing gingivitis, which typically worsens around the second month and reaches a peak in the eighth month.
Periodontal disease can increase the risk for low-weight infants and cause other complications, so it is important for pregnant women to see a dentist and / or hygienist.
Menopause
Estrogen deficiency after menopause reduces bone mineral density, which can lead to bone loss. Bone loss is associated with both periodontal disease and osteoporosis. During Menopause some women may develop a rare condition called menopausal gingvostomatitis, in which gums are dry, shiny, and bleed easily. Women may also experience abnormal tastes and sensations, such as salty, spicy, acidic, and burning.
