Summary

The goal of this research is to investigate oral health knowledge in pregnant women receiving care at Hospital La Fe and to see whether a one-time informational intervention improves this knowledge. The main questions this research aims to answer are:

What is the level of oral health knowledge among pregnant women attending Hospital La Fe?

Does a one-time informational intervention, delivered through a printed leaflet, improve oral health knowledge during pregnancy?

What factors are related to differences in oral health knowledge among pregnant women?

Participants are pregnant women receiving care at Hospital La Fe. They will:

Complete a questionnaire about their oral health knowledge.

Receive a printed informational leaflet about oral health during pregnancy.

Complete the same questionnaire again after a period of time to see if their knowledge has changed.

Researchers will compare answers before and after the leaflet is provided to see whether oral health knowledge improves. They will also explore which personal or social factors are linked to different levels of oral health knowledge.

Informational Leaflet

The intervention consists of a printed informational leaflet for pregnant women. The leaflet has two sections: "For Mothers," which explains oral health care during pregnancy, and "About the Baby," which provides oral health recommendations for the newborn. The content is based on recommendations from international and national pediatric dentistry associations (AAPD, EAPD, ALOP, SEOP). Participants read the leaflet during their hospital visit and take it home for reference. The leaflet aims to improve participants' knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding oral health during pregnancy and in the first years of the child's life.
