The oral manifestations of HIV infection.
The spectrum of oral lesions found in the HIV-infected population forms a diverse group of opportunistic conditions, all of which may be seen in non-HIV infected patients. With the continuing increase in HIV-positive individuals, it is important that practising dentists become familiar with the clinical features of HIV-associated oral diseases to facilitate early diagnosis and appropriate therapy.
