    Journal: Oral Surg Oral Med Oral Pathol; 1991 Jun; 71(6):675-7. PubMed ID: 2062520.
    Abstract:
    There are many oral complications of human immunodeficiency virus infection. One of the infectious sequelae is contamination and delayed healing of the tooth extraction site. We report a case of a nonhealing extraction site in a patient with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. Histologic and microbiologic evaluation determined the causative species of bacterium to be Actinomyces naeslundii. Diagnosis and treatment are discussed.
