OBJECTIVE
The aim of the study was to assess the dentition status and the treatment needs of the HIV-positive patients on ART for more than a year in Raichur, Karnataka.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Convenience sampling was followed. The sample size was 170. The dentition status and treatment needs of the patients were recorded as per the WHO guidelines.
RESULTS
The overall prevalence of dental caries was 79.4%. Males had higher percentage of dental caries than the females, and this was found to be statistically significant. The prevalence of dental caries was higher among the participants who used finger to clean their teeth compared to the toothbrush, neem stick, and charcoal users, and this was found to be statistically significant.
CONCLUSION
Higher prevalence of dental caries was observed among the study population. Most of them required some type of treatment. Patients with a low CD4 count required higher treatments than the others.

材料与方法
采用方便抽样法。样本量为170。按照世界卫生组织指南记录患者的牙列状况和治疗需求。
结果
龋齿的总体患病率为79.4%。男性龋齿百分比高于女性，且具有统计学意义。与使用牙刷、印楝枝和木炭清洁牙齿的参与者相比，用手指清洁牙齿的参与者龋齿患病率更高，且具有统计学意义。
结论
研究人群中观察到较高的龋齿患病率。他们中的大多数人需要某种类型的治疗。CD4细胞计数低的患者比其他患者需要更多的治疗。
