HIV itself does not directly cause tooth decay, but it can contribute to oral health problems that may lead to dental issues. Individuals with HIV often experience a weakened immune system, making them more susceptible to infections and conditions like periodontal disease, which can indirectly contribute to tooth decay. Additionally, some medications used to treat HIV can cause dry mouth, reducing saliva production and increasing the risk of cavities. Regular dental care and good oral hygiene are essential for people living with HIV to help prevent these issues.
