Abstract

Many viruses affecting the US population have intra- and extraoral manifestations; this is especially true of the herpes family of viruses. This course is an evidence-based presentation of the human herpesvirus (HHV) infections that produce symptoms in and around the oral cavity. Treatment options and therapies for alleviating discomfort from oral lesions will be discussed as well as potential conditions/lesions to be included in the differential diagnosis. Dental professionals play a major role in assisting with diagnosis of HHV infections. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
