Radiological examination shows impacted teeth in upper and lower the third molar region. Third molar treatment in these patients is carried out with elective surgery in general anesthesia. Prophylactic antibiotics were given to the patients preoperative as standar of care. Treatment planning for HIV patients, follow the same sequence as with other patients, the priorities are to alleviate pain, restore function and prevent further disease.Bleeding control also needed to avoid complications
