Syphilis is a sexually transmitted systemic disease that is on epidemic conditions in Brazilian territory in recent years. The decline in the use of barrier contraceptive methods, a high number of sexual partners, misinformation and a decrease in the fear of young people towards sexually transmitted diseases, due to the greater current longevity of HIV-positive patients, are some of the possible justifications for the expressive increase of the cases. The discovery of acquired syphilis usually occurs in its secondary phase with manifestations in areas of mucosa and skin, and the oral cavity is frequently affected, with prominent regions of the tongue, lips and palate. The dental surgeon plays a key role in the early diagnosis of syphilis, since oral manifestations are relatively common, especially in its second phase. In this work we present two cases of acquired syphilis with oral manifestations which diagnoses were conducted by dentists.
