The study aims to determine ginger mouthwash's impact on gingival health, IL-6, cortisol, LF, and 8-OHdG levels in pregnant women with stress and gingivitis compared to CHX and distilled water. Objectives: 1. Evaluate the clinical efficiency of ginger mouth rinse for 7 days to control gingival inflammation by measuring the clinical periodontal parameters, Plaque Index (PI), Gingival Index (GI), and Bleeding on probing (BOP) in comparison with CHX and placebo mouth rinses in pregnant women who have stress and gingivitis. 2. Measuring salivary IL\_6, Cortisol, LF, and 8-OHdG levels by Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) at the baseline visit before and after 7 days of using ginger mouth rinse compared to CHX and placebo mouth rinses. 3. Assessment of participants' feedback regarding ginger, CHX, and placebo mouth rinses after 7 days of use by Visual Analog Scale (VAS) questionnaire. 4. correlate IL\_6, Cortisol, LF and 8-OHdG salivary levels with clinical periodontal parameters (GI, BOP, PI) to assess their relationship in pregnant women with stress and gingivitis.
