Abstract

Paediatric Inflammatory Multisystem Syndrome temporally associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection (PIMS-TS) has been reported globally since the outbreak of the coronavirus disease. The syndrome shares similarities with Kawasaki disease (KD). The manifestation of oral changes in both PIMS-TS and KD warrants that the oral health practitioner has an awareness of these conditions to facilitate timely
management.
