Summary

This study looks at two different approaches to help pregnant people with gum disease get better dental care. Participants will receive free dental check-ups, cleanings, and supplies. The goal is to see which method reduces gum inflammation and improves oral health habits, and whether it leads to better pregnancy outcomes. About 160 pregnant individuals under 20 weeks will take part.
