Abstract: Some diseases of the mouth cavity can be considered as initial indication of infection from the HIV virus. The authors have made some specialist dentistry examinations in certain drug using patients, hence at risk, which present under laboratory examination a positive reaction to the HIV virus. HIV as a result can be corrected with these lesions.
