Abstract

As we made sure, with the spread of the coronavirus infection, the number of the oral mucosa diseases caused by COVID-19 is also growing. Effective diagnosis with rational pharmacotherapy of the oral mucosa pathology caused by this new pandemic is serious problem for dentists. In this article, on the basis of clinical-laboratory methods, diagnostics and treatment of the oral mucosa diseases were carried out in 43 patients which had previously undergone COVID-19. Oral examination results in patients with Coronavirus mutations show a variety of oral manifestations. The obtained research data clearly showed the necessity and advisability of including a dental examination in this category of patients after their clinical recovery [1-3]. Extremely severe acute respiratory infection caused by SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus. The SARS-CoV-2 virus is distinguished by its ability to infect various organs both through direct infection and through the body's immune response. This disease downstream can occur both in mild and severe form. One of the frequent complications is the development of viral pneumonia. Coronavirus can also infect the oral mucosa. The pathogenic agent enters the body due to angiotensin-converting enzyme 2, which is localized both on the surface of the alveoli and lung structures, and on the epithelial cells of the oral cavity, where it begins to actively multiply [5]. In connection with the spread of a new coronavirus infection, the number of diseases of the mucous membrane of the oral cavity is steadily growing [4-6].
