Abstract
Dental caries and periodontal diseases are amongst the most common non-communicable diseases globally 1. According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), more than 3.5 billion individuals suffer from one of the many oral diseases, with an economic burden exceeding a total of $387 in both public and private health sectors2. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 60-75% of pregnant women suffer from gingivitis, which is mainly due to already poor oral health and hormonal changes3.
龋齿和牙周病是全球最常见的非传染性疾病1。据世界卫生组织（WHO）统计，超过 35 亿人患有多种口腔疾病之一，公共和私人卫生部门的经济负担总计超过 387 美元2。根据美国疾病控制和预防中心（Centers for Disease Control and Prevention）的数据，60%-75% 的孕妇患有牙龈炎，这主要是由于她们的口腔健康状况本来就很差，再加上荷尔蒙的变化3。
