Oral Mucosa in Coronavirus Infection

Inflammatory diseases of the oral mucosa can manifest themselves by various nosological processes of the oral cavity, but sometimes even against the background of pronounced inflammatory processes, stomatitis, gingivitis and many other diseases do not form, often this is due to systemic viral processes, for example, coronavirus infection. At the same time, clinical symptoms can be very diverse, or even absent even against the background of changes in the immune and microbial landscape of the oral cavity. With the progression of the disease, the process may spread to the palate, gums, palatine tonsils, larynx, and digestive tract. It is important to distinguish weakened individuals, individuals with immunodeficiency conditions who were on long-term use of antibacterial agents, corticosteroids and antineoplastic drugs. The persistence and recurrent nature of such inflammatory lesions requires not only the usual hygienic measures for the care of the oral cavity and teeth, but also appropriate justified therapy aimed at stimulating the protective forces of the oral mucosa.
