Pregnancy & Hormone-related Factors

Hormonal changes during pregnancy, such as increased estrogen and progesterone, can affect the immune system, making women more susceptible to inflammation and bacteria growth in the mouth. Changes in hormone levels during puberty, contraception use, and menopause can also influence oral health.

Sex Hormones & Oral Health

Hormones play a crucial role in both male and female reproductive systems, but they also affect oral health. Sex hormones, like estrogen and testosterone, can influence the growth and development of tissues in the mouth.

Puberty & Periodontal Health

Periodontal disease can worsen during puberty due to hormonal fluctuations that influence immune response. This makes teenagers and young adults more susceptible to bacterial infections in the mouth.

Contraceptives & Oral Health

Hormonal contraceptives, like birth control pills, can affect gum health, leading to an increased risk of periodontal disease. This is because hormones can impact the immune system and influence bacterial growth in the mouth.

Menopause & Periodontal Health

After menopause, women experience a decline in estrogen levels, which can affect bone density and increase the risk of osteoporosis. This can also lead to decreased resistance to infections, including periodontal disease.
