About the trial
What the trial wants to find out
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.
The group in the trial
- Patients With HIV
Patients living with HIV included in a retrospective cohort using anonymized data from the COREVIH Pays de la Loire database. The study population includes adults followed in routine clinical care, with available demographic, clinical, biological, and comorbidity data used to assess factors relevant to dental management.
Treatment: HIV infection status and clinical characteristics
