ANALYSIS AND PREVENTION OF COMPLICATIONS OF PERIAPICAL TISSUE INFLAMMATION IN PREGNANT WOMEN

Аннотация

Periapical tissue inflammation is a common dental pathology that may lead to serious local and systemic complications, particularly in pregnant women. Physiological and hormonal changes during pregnancy can influence immune response, inflammatory processes, and oral health status, increasing the risk of progression and complications of periapical lesions. This article aims to analyze the main complications associated with periapical tissue inflammation in pregnant women and to evaluate effective preventive strategies. The study focuses on clinical manifestations, risk factors, diagnostic challenges, and preventive approaches, including timely dental examination, minimally invasive treatment, and patient education. The findings highlight the importance of early diagnosis and preventive dental care in reducing adverse maternal and fetal outcomes related to odontogenic infections during pregnancy.
