Resumo

A COVID-19, identificada pela primeira vez em Wuhan, China, em dezembro de 2019, rapidamente evoluiu para uma pandemia global, causando crises econômicas e de saúde significativas. Além dos sintomas sistêmicos, várias manifestações orais foram relatadas em pacientes infectados, devido à alta presença do receptor do SARS-CoV-2 (ACE-2) nos tecidos orais. Este estudo objetivou conduzir uma revisão integrativa da literatura para analisar as alterações orais associadas à COVID-19, compilando casos da base de dados PubMed até 26 de fevereiro de 2021. Um total de 19 estudos envolvendo 266 pacientes foram incluídos. As manifestações orais mais comuns foram disgeusia, ageusia, hipogeusia, úlceras aftosas e hemorrágicas, sensação de queimação e xerostomia. Co-infecções orais, como herpes simples e candidíase, também foram observadas. Os resultados indicam que pacientes com condições sistêmicas (como hipertensão, diabetes e obesidade) tendem a desenvolver sintomas mais graves e necessitam de hospitalização, particularmente indivíduos com mais de 60 anos. O estudo destaca a importância dos profissionais de odontologia no manejo multidisciplinar de pacientes com COVID-19, pois os sintomas podem servir como indicadores precoces de infecção. A padronização na descrição dos relatos de casos em estudos futuros é essencial para melhorar a compreensão do envolvimento oral na COVID-19.
