Episode Highlights: Transmissions of dental caries organisms and pathogens from mother to child Evidence about transmissions of dental caries Ways to communicate with pregnant mothers Benefits of xylitol chewing gum Quotes: “ I found that folks that were afraid, had really bad experiences when they were young” “I read his research, and it guided my work throughout my career” “Mothers who have healthy mouths, are less likely to have pregnancy complications” “Moms have the ability to transmit these organisms through oral contact, even before they have teeth” “If we help moms understand there are some simple things that can be done to ensure their child is healthier, and give moms options to choose these kind of things, and guide them and help them to do that, they will be more successful.
