Replying to @Carah Davis, RDH
Morning sickness isn’t the villain here. Pregnancy is (when it comes to tooth decay at least❤️)
What no one tells you: pregnancy literally pulls calcium and minerals from your teeth and bones—especially if you’re not replenishing.
Tooth decay, enamel erosion, receding gums… it’s not just the nausea.
It’s the nutrient depletion, the blood volume changes, the hormonal shifts.
And women are being gaslit into thinking it’s just poor hygiene or morning sickness.
This is what I wish someone told me during my first pregnancy.

Yeah this happened to me 20 years ago. I just brushed and brushed and basically started losing my teeth. Now? Full dentures and I hate them. They don’t fit but it’s nice to actually eat food that I couldn’t for years! I was looking forward to a Lifetime of oatmeal and mashed potatoes! Listen to this gal! She knows what she is saying!!!!!
