“…The main factors that influence the appearance of these lesions are the use of HAART, alterations of the CD4+ T-cell count, and high viral loads. Studies on children have also reported other factors, including poor oral hygiene and low socioeconomic status [5]. Nabbanja et al (2013) observed that the incidence of oral manifestations in pediatric subjects with poor oral hygiene is significantly higher, while Baghirath et al (2013) reported that children living in rural areas and those with a lower socio-economic status have more lesions than those living in urban areas or belonging to richer social classes [17,18].…”

“…Even in children, it is very common to find oral mucosal lesions, which are often among the first manifestations of HIV-infection in pediatric patients with important prognostic values [4]. A poor oral health can reduce life quality, leading to difficult psychosocial and nutritional conditions and complicating the treatment of the systemic diseases [5].…”

Oral Manifestations in HIV-Positive Children: A Systematic Review

Background: The number of pediatric patients affected by HIV still remains high, mainly in developing countries, where the main cause of infection is vertical transmission from the mother. Even today, a large number of these children do not have access to treatment, and, without proper care, they die in the first few years of life. Objective: The aim of our review was to assess the prevalence of oral hard and soft tissue lesions in HIV-positive pediatric patients by identifying the most common manifestations and the overall impact that they may have on the children’s quality of life. Study design: A systematic review of the articles in the English language in PubMed and Scopus was conducted in March 2019 in order to identify the main epidemiological and cross-sectional studies on the topic. Results: Oral diseases are still one of the most common manifestations in HIV-positive pediatric patients, and they often represent the first form in which immunosuppression shows itself. An analysis of the literature shows that candidiasis is the most common oral lesion found in HIV-positive children. A significant incidence of gingivitis and gingival disease is also evident, though not strictly correlated to HIV infection. However, thanks to the introduction of new antiretroviral therapies, the incidence of HIV-related oral lesions is decreasing. Conclusions: An HIV-positive children care program should also include dental protocols, as oral disease negatively influences the quality of life, affecting both functional and social aspects.

“…This scientific group addressed the need for scientific knowledge in basic science, clinical/translational science, and social science. The general consensus was that oral health services play an essential role in promoting and maintaining the general health of people with HIV infection . The Hyderabad declaration 2014 spelt out the principles and goals of oral health for people with HIV and emphatically stated that the responsibility of achieving the goal was teamwork comprised of oral health care workers, co‐professionals involved in management of HIV, and regulatory bodies.…”

There were 36.9 million in the world living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) as of 2017, and new infections have seen a reduction by 18% since 2010. But this rate of decline is not sufficient for the goal of eradication of AIDS by 2030. Only 21.7 million people infected with HIV have accesses to antiretroviral therapy, with the rest at risk of the potential complications of HIV infection. It has been shown that oral lesions are diagnostic and prognostic of HIV infection, and many oral opportunistic infections continue to be a major problem, particularly in developing countries. It is therefore important that dental surgeons be aware and updated to recognize and manage the oral effects of HIV infection/AIDS. This chapter describes the classification, diagnosis, and management of oral lesions in these patients, based on our current understanding of the infection. This review also discusses the standardization of diagnosis of oral lesions in HIV infection/AIDS patients, immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome case definition, and the research priorities formulated at the 7th World Workshop on Oral Health and Disease in AIDS.

“…Oral health needs assessment world-wide in relation to HIV: oral health needs and inequalities, oral health promotion, co-ordinating research and enhancing dissemination in relation to HIV In this workshop, the participants discussed the meaning of 'health need' and considered the oral health inequalities and oral health promotion among PLWHA (Koyio et al, 2016). The approaches of co-ordinating and standardizing research methodology and disseminating results were debated.…”

The Research Agenda generated by the 7th World Workshop on Oral Health and Disease in AIDS (WW7) is delivered in this paper. Panels of international experts presided over nine workshops that constituted the conference held in November 2014 in Hyderabad, India. The main goal of the Workshop was to bring together clinician and scientists interested in the subject to debate with world-wide perspectives current issues related to the oral manifestations in HIV/ AIDS. The workshops were structured around three themes; basic science, clinical/translational science and social science and were attended by 135 participants from 31 countries. The research questions debated at the workshops are presented in nine consensus papers published in this issue and are summarised in this paper along with an outline of the identified research needs in the field.
