Denture stomatitis is the most common oral disorder found in denture wearers. It is usually associated with presence of Candida albicans infection. The study was carried out of (70) denture wearers to determine the effect of local predisposing factors, the oral and denture hygiene habits, age of denture and age of denture wearers and degree of Candida colonization on the denture surface to deve...

Candida-associated denture stomatitis is an infectious inflammatory condition of the oral mucosa, with frequent recurrences. The aim of this study was to assess the use of infrared thermography as investigation method for Candida-associated denture stomatitis (as inflammatory disorder of the maxillary denture bearing area), by comparing disease and non-disease groups. An observational study was...

Purpose: This study aimed to assess the efficacy of palatal brushing in the treatment of denture stomatitis. Materials and Methods: After screening 143 individuals with a potential diagnosis of denture stomatitis, 48 patients (mean age: 66.0 ± 11.2 years) were enrolled in a two-center phase 1 clinical trial with a one-group pretest/posttest design. The intervention of interest was manual palata...

statement of problem: recurrent aphthous stomatitis (ras) is one of the most common inflammatory diseases encountered in dental practice, but the precise etiology and pathogenesis of the disease is not fully understood. vascular endothelial growth factor (vegf) is a multifunctional angiogenic cytokine involved in angiogenesis and wound healing. there is evidence that vegf could play an importan...

background: artemisia is a herbal plant that its anticandidal effect has been investigated in different studies. the aim of this study was to assess the effect of artemisia sieberi mouth wash on denture stomatitis.methods: this double blind clinical trial study was performed on 30 patients with denture stomatitis (type ii, iii). they were randomly divided into two groups. the patients in contro...

Definition Denture-related stomatitis indicates an inflammatory process of the mucosa that bears a complete or partial removable dental appliance, typically a denture. Since it was described as “sore mouth under plates”, several terms have been used in the past to define this condition: “chronic denture palatitis”, “stomatitis prothetica”, “denture related candidiasis” “denture-induced stomatit...

Recently accumulated knowledge allows more precise comparison of the structural (and possibly evolutionary) relationships of several different animal rhabdoviruses: vesicular stomatitis virus, rabies virus, Kern Canyon virus, and spring viremia of carp virus. Each virus is composed primarily of a glycoprotein, an RNA-associated nucleoprotein, and one or two membrane proteins. Vesicular stomatit...

Uremic stomatitis is a rare disease that affects the oral mucosa, caused by acute or chronic advanced kidney failure. Of poorly known etiopathogenesis, the condition has been associated with high levels of salivary ammonia. Four clinical manifestations have been described: ulcerative, non-ulcerous pseudo membranous, hyperkeratotic, and hemorrhagic uremic stomatitis. Since uremic stomatitis has ...
