New updated information from the Mayo clinic on preterm labor prevention discusses one of the many causes early labor Authorities are not sure of the cause of preterm labor, but our Lone Tree Colorado dentist recommends that you read this article to gather important information.

- Obesity

- Illicit drug use
- Infections
- Diabetes
- and many other potential causes
Remember to Take Care of your Teeth and Gums (brush, floss and see your dentist)
Yes, taking care of your teeth and gums is in one of the recommendations from the Mayo Clinic. In the article it stated "... brush and floss daily and visit your dentist for regular cleanings and dental care. Gum disease may be associated with preterm birth".
