Resumen

Con la presente revisión, nos proponemos reconocer y analizar algunos aspectos fundamentales reportados recientemente en la literatura, que relacionan la cavidad oral con la infección por SARS CoV-2. Se realizó una búsqueda bibliográfica en Pubmed, Scopus, Scielo y el servidor de preprints medRivx. Allí, se seleccionaron artículos publicados durante 2019 y 2020 de investigaciones asociadas con cavidad oral, COVID 19, SARS-CoV-2, diagnóstico viral en saliva y el uso de enjuagues bucales como posible mecanismo para reducir la carga viral. Se seleccionaron un total de 33 artículos relacionados con cavidad oral; infección por SARS-CoV-2; manifestaciones orales de COVID 19; sintomatología, diagnóstico en saliva y el uso de enjuagues bucales para minimizar el riesgo de infección. Entre los hallazgos se reconocieron las manifestaciones orales de COVID 19; también, se evidenció el potencial de la cavidad oral como sitio de infección y diseminación viral a otros órganos y el papel de la saliva como herramienta diagnóstica para SARS-CoV-2. El conocimiento sobre la cavidad oral y su relación con el SARS-CoV-2 es limitado, lo que hace necesario comprender mejor las manifestaciones orales durante la COVID-19, sus síntomas y posibles complicaciones. Se identifica la necesidad de establecer estrategias de prevención de infecciones durante la práctica odontológica.
