Abstract

With the emergence of the pandemic disease covid 19 in the year 2019, disease had a devastating and life-threatening impression in the second wave that has calamitously ascended the number of cases of the disease called Mucormycosis all over the world and including our country, India. Being the most infrequent fungal infection, it was seen as the most rapidly occurring fulminating disease among the patients who were recovering from recent SARS-CoV-2 infection. The most common form of this infection is seen in the rhinomaxillary region and in patients who were immunocompromised such as diabetes. This article will highlight the various characteristic oral features of Mucormycosis with the CBCT characteristic features that have been observed in 6 different cases of recovered COVID-19 patients, with few patients having a history of diabetes.
