Recent studies have shown periodontal diseases (gum diseases) as risk factors for adverse pregnancy outcomes, such as prematurity and low birth weight. Objectives of the present study were to determine the effect of non-surgical periodontal therapy on pregnancy outcomes in women with periodontitis and to detect IgM and IgG status in cord blood during delivery. A total of 20 pregnant women in their 2nd trimester and associated with chronic generalised periodontitis were selected and recruited for the study. They were grouped into two: Group 1 (treatment group) and Group 2 (control). Periodontal parameters of all the subjects were recorded at baseline and after delivery. Data related to weight of the infant and type of delivery was recorded. During the delivery, cord blood was collected for the estimation of IgM and IgG antibodies. All the recordings were subjected for statistical analysis. The study concluded that maternal periodontitis was associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes.
近期研究表明，牙周疾病（牙龈疾病）是早产和低出生体重等不良妊娠结局的风险因素。本研究的目的是确定非手术牙周治疗对患有牙周炎的孕妇妊娠结局的影响，并在分娩时检测脐血中的IgM和IgG状态。总共选择并招募了20名处于孕中期且患有慢性广泛性牙周炎的孕妇参与该研究。她们被分为两组：第1组（治疗组）和第2组（对照组）。在基线和分娩后记录所有受试者的牙周参数。记录与婴儿体重和分娩类型相关的数据。在分娩期间，采集脐血以评估IgM和IgG抗体。所有记录均进行统计分析。该研究得出结论，孕妇牙周炎与不良妊娠结局相关。
