Impact of Symptomatic COVID-19 on the Oral Health of Pediatric Patients in Tbilisi City
A close association was established between symptomatic COVID-19 and microbiome changes in the oral saliva of children, as well as between oral health indicators and symptomatic COVID-19. Considering the research results, it is assumed that a symptomatic course of COVID-19 may be an additional risk factor associated with poor oral health in the pediatric population in the post-COVID-19 period.
