Oral Hygiene and Maternity Outcomes Multicenter Study (OHMOM) (OHMOM)

April 20, 2023 updated by: Procter and Gamble

A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial to Evaluate Late First to Mid-Second Trimester Introduction of Advanced Daily Oral Hygiene on Gingivitis and Maternity Outcomes

This study will track changes in oral health in pregnant women. Subjects will be assigned to either regular oral care or advanced oral care and be given oral care products to use until they deliver. A comparison between the two groups (regular and advanced oral care) will be made to see if the oral care products impacted oral health and maternity variables.
