This document compares non-AIDS necrotizing ulcerative periodontitis to AIDS-associated necrotizing ulcerative periodontitis. Non-AIDS type occurs after repeated gum infections and causes painful red gums, bleeding, and bad breath. It can also cause fever and swollen glands. AIDS-associated type affects up to 5% of people and results in large areas of soft tissue death exposing bone, with bone fragments sometimes moving to other areas of the mouth. Bone loss is more rapid in HIV-positive patients and there are greater numbers of opportunistic infections.

2. NON-AIDS TYPE NECROTIZING ULCERATIVEPERIODONTITIS Occurs after repeated long-term episodes of NUG. Necrosis and ulcerationof the coronal portion of the interdental papillae and/or gingival margin. Painful, bright-red marginal gingiva. Bleeding on even slight manipulation . Mouth malodor (halitosis) . Systemic manifestations including fever, malaise, and lymphadenopathy

4. AIDS-ASSOCIATED NECROTIZINGULCERATIVE PERIODONTITIS The prevalence of these illnesses may be up to 5%. Large areas of soft tissue necrosis. Exposure of bone. Sequestration of bone fragments which sometimes extend to the vestibular area and/or the palate Bone loss associated with HIV-positive NUP may be extremely rapid. Greater numbers of the opportunistic infection
