Methods: Eighty one preeclamptic women were studied in the HUV after signing the inform consent and filling inclusion criteria. Selected patients were examined and their medical, dental, periodontal data recorded. Periodontal index used were pocket depth, clinical attachment loss six measurements by tooth in the whole dentition except third molars. Subgingival samples for bacterial culture were taken and Periodontal diagnosis made according to the American Academy of Periodontology (AAP) concensus report-1999. Results: Sixty<br />three percent of women had slight pre-eclampsia and 27.2% severe preaclampsia. Ninety one percent<br />women (n=74) had certain degree of gingival and periodontal afection. Fifty nine percent (n=48) had<br />Chronic Periodontitis and only 8.6% preeclamptic women had oral health. More prevalent periodontal<br />organisms among pre-eclamptic women were Fusobacterium ssp 80.2% (n=65), Porphyromonas gingivalis<br />59.3% (n = 48) and Prevotella intermedian/nigrescens 51.9% (n=42). Conclusions: More pre-eclamptic women had chronic periodontitis and also harbored in their subgingival microbiota important periodontophatic organisms. Treatment of periodontal disease before or during pregnancy might be important to reduce medical and systemic health complications.
