“…They are particularly sensitive to deficiencies in the adaptive immune response involving antigen presenting molecules deficient in APC, and the number of T and B cells [36] . The most common oral lesions found in HIV-positive patients were Kaposi's sarcoma (KS), followed by oral candidiasis, periodontitis, necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis (NUG), necrotizing ulcerative periodontitis (NUP) and oral hairy leukoplakia (OHL) [7,37,38,39,40] . The most frequent oral manifestation in HIV-infected children is oral candidiasis, followed by changes such as gingivitis and parotid gland enlargement [41,42] .…”

The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a retrovirus that breaks down the body's immune system leaving the patient vulnerable to a series of life-threatening opportunistic infections, neurological disorders or unusual diseases and neoplasms. Objective: To evaluate the information available about the human immunodeficiency virus related to its affections in the cavity. The topics to be evaluated are epidemiology, diagnosis, treatment and oral manifestations. Methodology: In order to carry out this literature review, an electronic search was necessary using PUBMED and Google Scholar with the words "HIV AND dentistry" "epidemiology, diagnosis and treatment" and "oral manifestations ". Results: Its incidence worldwide is 38 million people with a high incidence rate in Africa and the European Union. Its diagnosis is by serological tests and rapid IgG tests. The treatment is Antiretroviral. Its most common oral manifestations are: Kaposi's sarcoma (KS), followed by oral candidiasis, periodontitis, necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis (NUG), necrotizing ulcerative periodontitis (NUP) and oral hairy leukoplakia (OHL). Conclusion: Dentists must know the most common oral manifestations of HIV since there is a high incidence of people infected with this virus who present in dental consultation.

Tuberculous glossitis is very rare, even in countries with a high tuberculosis burden. The tongue is the most frequent lesion in the structure of oral forms, the frequency of which does not exceed 0.1%. Allocate sputtogenic and hematogenous pathways of infection. The protective function of saliva, due to enzymes and antibodies in its composition, the pH of the oral cavity, the peculiarities of the blood supply, the presence of variable saprophytic microflora, a small number of lymphoid follicles, complicates the inoculation of mycobacterium tuberculosis. However, defects of the mucous membrane due to trauma, invasive interventions and chronic nonspecific inflammation in the oral cavity create favorable conditions for the vital activity of the pathogen. Analyzed 38 clinical cases of tuberculous glossitis from foreign practice, presented their brief description. The issue of timely detection and differential diagnosis of tuberculous glossitis is relevant in the practice of doctors of various profiles. Any lesion of the tongue should be carefully investigated, diagnostics should include laboratory, histological and radiation methods.
