Abstract:
The dimensions of AIDS continue to increase. The number of people infected with the AIDS virus (HIV) grows and no effective vaccine or curative treatment is expected in the near future. This article describes the oral findings of AIDS and AIDS-related complex (ARC). It will help dentists in recognition, diagnosis, consultation, and office precautions. These oral findings are important considerations in treatment planning and staging for patients with AIDS and ARC.
