    Dr. De Vizio of Colgate answered:
    If you're pregnant, it is very important that you not neglect oral hygiene. When morning sickness and nausea make brushing challenging, try skipping the toothpaste or using salt water rinses afterward. If you have a "pregnancy tumor" in your mouth that interferes with brushing and flossing, have it removed.
