Abstract

Abstract. Inflammatory periodontal tissue diseases during pregnancy occur in more than 90% of cases and often tend to progress. Inflammatory periodontal tissue diseases, especially in pregnant women, are not only a medical problem, but also a social one that requires an interdisciplinary approach. Pregnancy is a special condition of a woman's body, in which a new life is born in her. However, despite the miraculous transformation, the body of the expectant mother is experiencing significant changes that do not always improve her health. During pregnancy, occurred hormonal restructuring of the body worsens blood supply and weakens the immune system. In the saliva of expectant mothers, the concentration of calcium and phosphorus decreases, which makes the tooth enamel more vulnerable and accessible to the development of caries. During pregnancy in a woman's body, especially in the third trimester, there are changes in the vitamin mineral complex, and especially the calcium-phosphorus metabolism changes. This circumstance is because more than 90% of calcium in the last stages of pregnancy is directed to the mineralization of the bones of the skeleton of the unborn child.
