However, only 36.1% knew the correct position to prevent hypotension syndrome in the third trimester, and 37.8% were unsure about safe medications. Additionally, 92% supported integrating oral health education for pregnant women into the curriculum, with 95% believing it would increase their comfort in treating pregnant women.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The study reveals significant deficiencies in the knowledge and attitudes of Portuguese dental students regarding evidence\u2010based dental care for pregnant women.
