The exam sorológico followed protocol of the Central Laboratory of the Hospital of the Clinics of UFMG, and the exams clinical intrabucais followed a standardized sequence, being observed the universal norms of biossegurança. The collected data were analyzed by the exact test of Fisher, being considered the level of significância of 5%. A case of hepatitis C chronicle was diagnosed in the GROUP 1 (2,00%), not being significant estatisticamente (p = 0,464). In the GROUP 2 buccal LP was diagnosed in five patient (2,33%), with statistical significância (p = 0,002).
