“…More than 100 types of HPV have been identified, and at least the following 25 types have been detected in oral lesions: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 10,11,13,16,18,31,32,33,35,40,45,52,55,57,58,59,69,72,73.…”

While plaque-induced gingivitis is one of the most common human inflammatory diseases, several non-plaque-induced gingival diseases are less common but often of major significance for patients. The non-plaque-induced gingival lesions are often manifestations of systemic conditions, but they may also represent pathologic changes limited to gingival tissues. A classification is proposed, based on the etiology of the lesions and includes: Genetic/Developmental disorders; Specific infections; Inflammatory and immune conditions and lesions; Reactive processes; Neoplasms; Endocrine, Nutritional and metabolic diseases; Traumatic lesions; and Gingival pigmentation.

“…32 Several of these are uncommon, and oral manifestations may more likely occur with immune deterioration. 33,34 Oral mycoses can cause acute, chronic, and mucocutaneous lesions. 35 Candidosis is the most common mouth mycosis, while histoplasmosis and aspergillosis are less common ( Table 2).…”

“…It can be transmitted like HBV (sexual intercourse, blood borne and perinatal ways) [91,92]. Moreover, this infection have oral manifestations that can help in diagnosis: e.g., oral candidiasis, oral hairy leukoplakia, oral necrotising ulcerative gingivitis and oral Kaposi's sarcoma [10,[93][94][95][96]. • Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is part of the herpes virus family and can cause diseases with several manifestations [97].…”

The authors performed a narrative review on Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome- CoronaVirus-2 ( SARS-CoV-2) and all infectious agents with the primary endpoints to illustrate the most accepted models of safety protocols in dentistry and oral medicine, and to propose an easy view of the problem and a comparison (pre- vs post-COVID19) for the most common dental procedures. The outcome is forecast to help dentists to individuate for a given procedure the differences in terms of safety protocols to avoid infectious contagion (by SARS-CoV-2 and others dangerous agents). An investigation was performed on the online databases Pubmed and Scopus using a combination of free words and Medical Subject Headings (MESH) terms: “dentist” OR “oral health” AND “COVID-19” OR “SARS-CoV-2” OR “coronavirus-19”. After a brief excursus on all infectious agents transmittable at the dental chair, the authors described all the personal protective equipment (PPE) actually on the market and their indications, and on the basis of the literature, they compared (before and after COVID-19 onset) the correct safety procedures for each dental practice studied, underlining the danger of underestimating, in general, dental cross-infections. The authors have highlighted the importance of knowing exactly the risk of infections in the dental practice, and to modulate correctly the use of PPE, in order to invest adequate financial resources and to avoid exposing both the dental team and patients to preventable risks.

“…For example, whilst oropharyngeal candidiasis occurs commonly in HIV-positive women Candida infection is rarely seen in vaginal mucosa of the same cohort. 7 Oral Candida infection rates in HIV-positive patients vary from 26.3% (India) 9 and 38% (Tanzania) to 94% (Zaire), and range from 37.8% to 63% in South Africa. 10 Our findings of secondary Candida infection rate in oral HIV-KS (40.6%) are consistent with previous reports.…”

aims and objectives: To determine the frequency and histomorphology of secondary Candida infection in oral HIV-associated Kaposi sarcoma (HIV-KS) and to describe the demographics of patients with oral HIV-KS with and without secondary Candida infection. Materials and methods: Haematoxylin and eosin, and periodic acid-Schiff stains of 32 oral HIV-KS were examined histologically for intensity and morphology of Candida colonisation, depth of invasion, number of organisms, epithelial reactions and inflammatory response. Depth of Candida invasion and severity of infection were correlated with CD4 T-cell counts of HIV-positive patients. results: Forty-one percent of oral HIV-KS were secondarily infected with Candida (n=13). Intensity varied from an isolated single pseudohyphus to matted colonies. Whilst in most cases, organisms did not invade beyond the parakeratin layer, pseudohyphae extended into stratum spinosum in two cases, and a single case showed a pseudohyphus within the lamina propria. Two cases showed pseudohyphae in the pyogenic membrane. Neutrophilic permeation of epithelium, commonly associated with Candida infection was frequently present even in absence of Candida infection. conclusion: Oral HIV-KS is commonly secondarily infected with large numbers of Candida organisms. Morphological characteristics of secondary Candida infection in surface epithelium of HIV-KS suggest an altered pathogenetic pathway. Further studies are indicated.
