Abstract

Aim:- To investigate the correlation between the bacterial flora of vagina of the mother and the oral cavity of the newborn and to determine the difference in the oral microflora of a newborn with normal and cesarean delivery immediately after birth and after feeding. Methodology:- The study was conducted on 50 expectant mothers. The samples were collected from the 2 Registered Private Maternity Hospitals in Mathura City. The subjects were informed and explained about the procedure and a written consent was obtained. The samples were collected from 25 newborns by normal delivery and 25 by cesarean delivery. Three swabs were taken from the subjects i.e., one from maternal birth canal and 2 from the oral cavity of newborn immediately after birth and after first feeding. Samples were sent to the laboratory under sterile condition, for the microbiological assessment. Results: In this study it was observed that the oral cavity of newborns was found to be sterile in 40% of normal delivery and 76% through caesarean delivery. Conclusion:- The mode of delivery has an influence on the salivary microbial profile in infants. Streptococcus salivarius was established into the oral cavity only after the first feeding.
