Abstract

V originále

Bacterial/fungal coinfection is a suggested etiological theory for the COVID‐19 related oral manifestations that may trigger overprescribing of broad‐spectrum antibiotics for COVID‐19 patients, especially for the ones who experience a longer course of the infection. Rigorous reporting of the clinical scenarios of fungal complications such as oropharyngeal candidiasis (OPC) which could cause life‐threatening candidemia may help in understanding the ongoing pandemic and the potential role of dentists in frontline teams.Therefore, we aim to describe a non‐severe COVID‐19 case with oral candidiasis according to the CARE guidelines.
