Dental Management of Patients With HIV in Pays de la Loire
Sponsor: Nantes University Hospital
Summary
Dental care for people living with HIV has evolved with the widespread use of antiretroviral therapy, which has improved life expectancy and disease control. However, uncertainty remains about whether specific adaptations are still needed during dental procedures due to potential biological abnormalities that may increase infectious or bleeding risks. This study aims to evaluate the proportion of patients living with HIV in the Pays de la Loire region who may require adapted dental management based on biological parameters such as immune status, hematological values, and comorbidities. A retrospective descriptive study will be conducted using anonymized data from 5,603 patients followed in the COREVIH Pays de la Loire database. The results are expected to provide objective data to better inform dental practice and reduce unnecessary precautions or stigmatization in the management of patients living with HIV.
