Levels of HIV‐1 in subgingival biofilm of HIV‐infected patients

Abstract: HIV-1 can be detected and quantified in the subgingival biofilm of HIV-infected individuals, but these findings are not associated with PHVL and periodontal clinical parameters.

“…It should also be stressed that in the current analysis, when smokers and non‐smokers were examined together, no tested parameter correlated with viral load. This finding may corroborate what was demonstrated by other studies, which have shown that viral load, detectable or not, was not associated with the presence or progression of periodontal disease 21 , 33 …”

“…Conversely, another study demonstrated that lower levels of CD4+ were not associated with more periodontal disease, including HIV+ with or without HAART 39 . As remarked above, the increase in the frequency of BOP was not correlated to higher levels of CD4+, which is in agreement with the findings from other studies 33,34,40,41 . It should also be stressed that in the current analysis, when smokers and non‐smokers were examined together, no tested parameter correlated with viral load.…”

“…Bacteria and viruses are more often detected in oral biofilm samples of immunocompromised compared with systemically healthy individuals . However, studies have shown increased concentrations of viruses in the subgingival oral biofilm of systemically healthy patients with periodontal and peri‐implant diseases compared with their respective controls.…”
