Maternal periodontal infection may pose a possible risk factor for preterm deliveries, low birth weight babies, and preeclampsia (Guideline on Perinatal Oral Health Care, 2011). Expectant mothers with poor oral health and high levels of Mutans Streptococci (MS) and Lactobacilli (LB), the bacteria which generate acids from fermentable carbohydrates responsible for causing dental caries, pose a greater risk for infecting their children thus increasing the risk for childhood caries at an early age (Young, Buchanan, Lubman, and Budenz, 2006). The opportunity to improve perinatal oral health care for high risk mothers increases our ability to prevent dental disease in the expectant mother, to provide for optimal pregnancy and birth outcomes, and to decrease the potential for early childhood caries. The National Guideline Clearinghouse (2010) developed a guideline to “provide recommendations for perinatal oral health care, including risk assessment, anticipatory guidance, preventive strategies, and appropriate therapeutic interventions to be

Overweight and obesity has become a national epidemic problem. According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, obesity has affected a third of the adults in the United States and a third of the Americans seem to be getting fatter.

These health problems are causing health care costs of hospitals to rise. Therefore, not only is obesity dangerous but becoming very expensive. Statistics are given a decade old to ponder on how much the health care costs of childhood obesity has risen and will even more likely to be implemented.

Childhood obesity is a well- known topic and is currently a huge concern. An important finding by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention revealed that one-fifth of American children are obese. Research studies have shown that preventing obesity starts with breastfeeding. As opposed to formula feeding, breastfeeding reduce the risks of childhood obesity. Studies have revealed that obesity prevention initiates with breastfeeding.
Thus, the content takes a valuable look at the health issues and risk factors affecting Hartlepool residents. The report is divided into four chapters: Characteristics of geographical community, Health and improvement issue, Service provision and the role of the nurse. To best understand the data reported for Hartlepool where possible and appropriate, Hartlepool is compared to the English national statistics and the October 2011 government published white paper Healthy lives, Health people: A call to action on obesity in England. This sets out two national targets: * a sustained downward trend in level of excess weight in children by 2020. * a downward trend in the level of excess weight averaged across all adults by 2020.
