Pregnancy And Oral Health In Shelby Township

This post from Ray McKinley DDS & Brittany McKinley-Holloway DDS — McKinley General, Cosmetic & Implant Dentistry in Shelby Township MI is for women who are pregnant or planning to become pregnant.

Carrying a precious baby can not only consume your time; it can divert your attention from other things. As valued as your little bundle of joy will be, don’t forget your needs and your vitality during these critical months.

It’s vital to understand that the changes your body experiences during pregnancy also impact dental health. Changes in your hormonal balance are needed for growing a new life, but they can also compromise your oral health during pregnancy.

Your gums are especially susceptible. Poor gum health can even affect your unborn child. The American Dental Association has conducted studies that show a slightly increased risk of low birth weight and pre-term infants in mothers with gum disease.

In order to keep your smile healthy, it is recommended you have a thorough checkup before you are pregnant. If you are already pregnant but haven’t visited a dentist in a while, give us a call at Ray McKinley DDS & Brittany McKinley-Holloway DDS — McKinley General, Cosmetic & Implant Dentistry in Shelby Township MI. We offer general and restorative dentistry. Patients from Washington Township, Macomb, and Lakeside also some to us for dental implants. Contact us today!

GentleI have been going here for years and Taylor has always taken great care of me! Would highly recommend her for being gentle around the gums. Also the staff always makes you feel welcome by knowing exactly who you are even when you only visit twice a year which is always impressive!

ComfortableAn office full of friendly people who do their best to make you feel comfortable and let you choose how you want to be treated. My experience has involved as much mental healing as it has physical.

KnowledgeableEveryone in the office is very pleasant and knowledgeable. You are always greeted with a smile and they spend time explaining any questions you may have. I highly recommend this practice.

RelaxedGreat dentist and staff. I am hard to get fully numb, but they took their time to make sure I was fully numb and relaxed before doing work for a new crown. I didn’t feel a thing.
