OBJECTIVE Oral candidiasis, in the form of Candida-associated denture stomatitis, represents a common disease in a large percentage of denture wearers, and Candida albicans remains the most commonly isolated species. In this study, we aimed to evaluate biofilm production, coagulase and hemolytic activity of Candida species isolated from denture stomatitis patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS This ...

statement of the problem: candida species are believed to play an important role in initiation and progression of denture stomatitis. the type of the denture material also influences the adhesion of candida and development of stomatitis. purpose: the aim of this study was comparing the adherence of candida albicans to the conventional and injection molding acrylic denture base materials. materi...

Background: Denture bases that are often used in dentistry heat cured polymethyl methacrylate acrylic resin or polymerized resin. Acrylic has a weakness, namely the surface of can trigger growth bacteria and Candida albicans. albicans an important role occurrence denture stomatitis. Epidemiological studies show prevalence stomatitis is quite high, ranging from 30%-50% users. Innovation needed t...

Background and Purpose: Denture stomatitis is an inflammatory condition in the oral mucosa which develops under removable denture affects a considerable percentage of users. Due to insufficient studies on this issue Iran, we investigated prevalence patients using dentures. Materials Methods: In current descriptive-analytical cross-sectional study, 130 referred dental school clinic other clinics...

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of denture-related oral mucosal lesions (DML) in São Francisco sertão microregion, in Sergipe State, Northeastern Brazil. STUDY DESIGN Data related to gender, age, type of denture, length of denture use, hygiene care, nocturnal denture wear, symptoms, and presence of DML were obtained. Statistical analysis included the Pearso...

Candida albicans is a dimorphic yeast strongly gram positive able to live as normal commensal organism in the oral cavity of healthy people. It is the yeast more frequently isolated in the oral cavity. Under local and systemic factors related to the host conditions, it becomes virulent and responsible of oral diseases known as oral candidiasis. It has been shown that the presence of denture is ...

OBJECTIVES An attempt was made to evaluate effect of denture wearing on occurrence of fungal isolates in the oral cavity before and after complete denture insertion. METHOD Twenty five completely edentulous patients were selected; swab samples were collected intraorally before fabrication of complete dentures from labial vestibular area and after complete denture fabrication (one and four day...

Abstract: Dentures can cause new problems for wearers especially individuals who do not under-stand to maintain the cleanliness of dentures. In case full denture, mucosal surface covered by denture easily be accumulated plaques inter alia due Candida albicans which further stomatitis. This study aimed determine relationship between level complete hygiene and incidence was a literature review us...

OBJECTIVE Since dentures can serve as a reservoir for halitosis-causing oral bacteria, halitosis development is a concern for denture wearers. In this study, we surveyed the prevalence of four selected halitosis-related species (Fusobacterium nucleatum, Tannerella forsythia, Veillonella atypica and Klebsiella pneumoniae) in clinical denture plaque samples, and developed denture biofilm models f...
