       patients for the dental treatments, especially teeth extractions on the
       stage of AIDS. The extractions should be done at early stage of the
       infections of HIV. Because the prognosiss of the tooth are esase to be
       suspected at the initial stage. The prolonged healing are the results of
       the accumulated effects of the immunological satage and side effects of
       the treatments of the drugs, AZT and ddI. In addition, surgical
       treatments give the chances of the CMV infections which are subclinicaly
       suppressed by the immun systems. Dentist should understand the role of
       the dental treatments on the clinical course of the HIV infection.
