evenings, diarrhea, weight loss without reason, black wounds on the skin
or mucous membranes that can not be cured, prolonged coughing and
in the throat, easy bruising or bleeding without cause. Symptoms
the beginning is often called AIDS Related Complex (ARC). In the unlikely event of this disease
increases, other malignant disease develops, such as: pneumonia (penumocytis
carinii), thrush esophagus, cytomegalovirus or herpes, sarcoma sarcoma, a tumor
malignant blood vessels.
AIDS manifestations in the oral cavity
About 95% of AIDS patients have manifestations in the head area and
neck as well as by Shiod and Pinborg 1987.Manifestations in the mouth
often an early sign of HIV urinary
Infections due to fungi (Oral Candidiasis)
Kandiasi nulut so far is a sign at the mouth of the most frequently
found both in people with AIDS or AIDS related complex (ARC) and
a sign of clinical manifestations in patients with risk group tinggipada
over 59% of cases.
Oral thrush in people with AIDS can be seen in the form of oral thrush, acute
atrophic candidiasis, chronic hyperplastic candidiasis, and stomatis angularis
(Perleche).
Infections due to viruses
Infections due to herpes virus group most often seen in AIDS patients
and ARC. Viral infection in patients can be seen in the form stomatis herpetiformis,
herpes zoster, hairy leukoplakia, cytomegalovirus.
Infections due to bacteria
Infection because the bacteria can be either HIV or HIV-necrotizing gingivitis
periodontitis.

HIV-necrotizing gingivitis can be found in people with AIDS or
ARC. These lesions can be hidden or sudden bleeding time accompanied

with a commitment to consider the possibility of HIV infection.
This is caused mainly by the fact that some patients
AIDS is experiencing rapid alveolar bone destruction.
Neoplasm
Kaposi's sarcoma associated with AIDS appears to be a disease
a more virulent and usually has spread at the time of initial diagnosis.
Approximately 40% of AIDS patients with sarcoma sarcoma will die within
approximately one year and is usually accompanied by other infections opotunistik
(Eg pneumocystic carinii, fungi, viruses, bacteria).
Oral manifestations sarcoma sarcoma is usually an early sign of AIDS and
generally (50%) were found in the mouth of homosexual men. In addition to the mouth, sarcoma
