No. There is no treatment or cure for HPV. However, there is treatment for the changes that HPV can cause on the cervix, as well as treatment for genital warts.

Check out the About.com's new Cervical Cancer site!In 2007, over eleven thousand women will be diagnosed with cervical cancer. Although cervical cancer is one of the most preventable types of cancer, over three thousand women will die of this disease this year. All women should become aware of cervical cancer!

There is no treatment available for the virus itself. However, there are treatments for cervical changes that HPV can cause. Your health care provider will discuss these treatment options with you, if you need them.

Mouth sores are irritating, painful and many times unsightly. There are numerous causes of mouth sores including bacterial, viral or fungal infections. Even a loose orthodontic wire, an ill-fitting denture, or a sharp edge created by a broken tooth or filling can cause mouth sores. Mouth sores may also be symptoms of a disease or disorder. Be sure to have your dentist examine mouth sores that last more than one week.

If mouth cancer is spotted early, the chances of a complete cure are good, and the smaller the area or ulcer the better the chance of a cure. However, too many people come forward too late, because they do not visit their dentist for regular examinations.

There is no treatment for HPV infection. Treatments are available for the effects of the virus, such as abnormal changes to cells in the cervix and genital warts. Don’t confuse human papillomavirus (HPV) with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or herpes virus, as they are different infections.

The HPV vaccine, Gardasil, is a series of three injections to vaccinate against 4 strains of the Human Papilloma Virus most responsible for cervical cancers. At this time, the vaccine is only available for women ages 9-26 but studies and supplies are underway to make this more widely available.

Most people (up to 90%) who test positive for HPV with very sensitive tests for HPV (polymerase chain reaction [PCR] and Hybrid Capture® II) will become HPV negative on the same tests within 6-24 months from first testing positive. This is due to an effective immune response to HPV. What is not known is whether this means that the virus is actually eliminated from the body or just suppressed to such a low number of HPVs (as in latency) that even these sensitive tests cannot detect it.

You will be informed about the condition of your gums and teeth and the treatment necessary to resolve your dental issues.

Cold sores (herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) infections). If you’ve ever had a cold sore, you’re not alone. A half million people get one every year. Once exposed to this virus, it can hide in the body for years. Getting too much sun, having mild fevers that occur with a cold, or stress can trigger the virus and cause tiredness, muscle aches, sore throat, enlarged and tender lymph nodes, and cold sores.
