ABSTRACT:
Introduction: Veillonella species found in oral cavity are among the most abundant members of the oral flora, they are involved in bone and joint infections.
Objective: To analyze the literature on V. parvula, particularly bacteremia, treatment, colonization of dental implants, and symbiosis with other microorganisms.
Methodology: A review of the literature was carried out in the databases PubMed, Google Scholar and SCOPUS with the words ¨Veillonella parvula and Treatment and Clinical Advancements and biological markers, and dental implants".
Results: Veillonella parvula has different clinical manifestations and usually presents in a variety of systemic diseases. Among its treatment is the use of antibiotics, surgical lavage and photodynamic therapy. This bacterium is a very effective colonizer of dental implants of different composition. It is related to several oral microorganisms, including Streptococcus, Fusobacterium nucleatum and Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans.
Conclusion: It is important to identify V. parvula for proper treatment, as it exacerbates various oral diseases by making symbiosis with other oral pathogens.
