Sumario:The 2019-nCoV is officially called SARS-CoV-2. It causes a disease which called COVID 19. This is considered a pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO). This infection produces a severe acute respiratory syndrome characterized by fever, respiratory and gastrointestinal symptoms and systemic manifestations. In this context, clinical manifestations have been reported in patients with positive SARS-CoV-2, which have been improving the knowledge about the characteristics of the clinical picture, however one of the scarcely documented aspects is the semiology at the level of the oral cavity. New evidence shows the relevance of the oral cavity as a reservoir of the virus, so it plays a fundamental role in the diagnosis, evolution, and epidemiological transmission of COVID 19 infection patterns. This document aims to review and analyze the available evidence about oral manifestations in the context of SARS-CoV-2 infection.
