Pregnant mothers should pay attention to oral health.

Scientists first discovered oral bacteria related to the death of an upcoming fetus.

A study published in the journal Obstetrics And Gynaecology on Obstetrics and Gynecology reveals the case of a 35-year-old anonymous woman suffering from common gingivitis.

The 39-week-old baby she wore in her belly died prematurely. Doctors detect bacteria in the mother's mouth in the blood vessels, lungs and fetal stomach. This death is reported by microbiologists in Ohio.

Scientists believe that amniotic fluid infection may pose a risk to both the mother and the child - it has caused gingivitis to become a real risk.

Thanks to the precautionary measures, the mother of the dead fetus then gave birth to a healthy boy during the second pregnancy.

Dr. Nigel Carter, CEO of the British Dental Health Foundation, said the above case shows that improving oral health of pregnant women has a significant impact on the fetus. For pregnant women, strengthening dental care is extremely necessary.
