Introduction: Human papillomavirus (HPV) is an etiologic factor for several diseases of the oralmucosa and skin that can undergo a malignant process. Vaccination is the most important form of prevention, with girls being vaccinated between the ages of 9 and 13 and boys between the ages of 11 and 13. There is still no consensus on the prevalence of the HPV virus in children. Aim: To review the prevalence of HPV in children aged 1 to 13 years based on a database of reports of biopsied lesions diagnosed with papilloma analyzed in a national reference laboratory. Material and methods: Anatomic-pathologic reports of biopsies received at the Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology Laboratory of the Faculty of Dentistry of the College of São Paulo were analyzed over a 20-year period, between 2002 and 2022. Information on gender, lesion location and diagnostic hypotheses was also collected. Results: In a database of 93,950 reports, the age group analyzed accounted for 4,203 and 99 (2.3%) were diagnosed with papilloma. The proportion of male and female reports was similar at 50.5% and 49.5% respectively. The most common location of the lesion found was the lip region (48%). The most frequently cited diagnostic hypotheses were epulis and verruca vulgaris. Conclusion: The prevalence of papillomas in Brazilian children aged 1 to 13 years was 2.3%. Early diagnosis and advice on HPV vaccination can prevent and avoid exacerbation of the disease. Recognizing the clinical features of lesions is essential for correct diagnosis and early intervention and counseling.

BackgroundSeveral lesions can affect the oral and maxillofacial region, with trends influenced by lifestyle and age.AimTo investigate the occurrence of oral and maxillofacial lesions in paediatric patients assisted in an oral medicine diagnostic service in Brazil over 20 years.DesignA retrospective cross‐sectional study was performed in an oral medicine diagnostic service (1999–2019). Data included sex, age, anatomic site, and diagnosis from clinical records of children (0–9 years) and adolescents (10–19 years). Lesions were diagnosed through clinical examination. Biopsy and histopathologic examination were performed when necessary.ResultsAmong 10 530 records, 702 (6.67%) were from patients aged 0–19 years diagnosed with oral or maxillofacial lesions. A high frequency of females was observed (58.1%). Reactive/inflammatory lesions were the most common group of lesions (45.2%), followed by abnormalities of teeth/developmental defects (17.8%) and pulpal and periapical diseases (8.5%). Mucocele/ranula was the most common lesion in children (29.3%) and adolescents (25.3%). Lips were the most affected anatomic sites.ConclusionMost lesions were benign, and mucocele/ranula was the most frequent. Our results did not differ from those of histopathological‐based studies, but they provided information on the occurrence of oral and maxillofacial lesions to dentists and paediatricians.
