How will miscarriage reflect on dental health?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I heard something yesterday, and I wanted to know if it is possible. Can having a miscarriage cause your teeth to fall out? What effects will it have on your body? And how will it reflect on dental health?

Please help.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Well, miscarriage does not directly cause dental problems, but hormonal changes do. During pregnancy, hormonal changes can cause gums to swell and enlarge with an increased probability of gum and periodontal diseases. So, hormonal changes can be a culprit. If someone suffers an unfortunate miscarriage, then the hormonal changes that were already happening can be further exaggerated. But, does not cause problems to every woman. So, do not worry and consult your gynecologist.

I hope this helps.

Thank you.
