Individuals may experience tooth loss as a result of trauma, periodontal destruction, lack of adequate bone support and clinically dental mobility. The increase in these tooth loss results in a condition called complete toothlessness in patients, and as a result of this, dentists treat complete dentures. It is known that the microorganism retention in the existing restorations is faster and higher than the natural tissues, and this leads to faster plaque build-up and hence bad odor. Candida species are common in oral flora, because they are numerous in the mouth and they are opportunistic pathogenic fungi that can make superficial and deep infections. The most important pathogen species among these parasites is Candida albicans. Mouth moniliasis or acute pseudomembrane candidiasis in the oral cavity of the so-called canker is caused by C.albicans. Chronic hyperplastic candidiasis is a clinical entity that is clinically inseparable from leukoplakia and completely separate from thrush. The accumulation of microorganisms in prosthetic materials is very important for the protection of the health of oral tissues and it is desirable to use appropriate cleaning and disinfection materials to minimize this accumulation. It is known in the literature that ozone and microwave technologies are used as disinfection technique. In this study, the application of ozone and microwave technologies in addition to the cleaning agents used as standard treatment will be compared in vivo. No such research has been found.The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of different cleaning and disinfection procedures on the involvement of Candida species in complete denture patients.
Sjogren's syndrome is an autoimmune chronic disease. It has two forms Primary Sjogren's syndrome charactrized by dry eyes and dry mouth. Secondary Sjogren's syndrome characterized by rheumatoid diseases as rheumatoid arthritis, scleroderma and lupus erythematosus. SS patients are most liable to oral candidiasis , so they need prophylaxis aganist oral candidiasis. Probiotic bacteria are live microorganisms that when administered in adequate amounts confer benefits to health.Probiotics are commonly used as a prophylaxis aganist oral candidosis.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of propolis on the treatment of oral candidiasis, more specifically denture stomatitis. Half of participants will receive a standardized-propolis (EPP-AF®) gel formulation while the other half will receive miconazole gel, both for oral use.
Several dental professionals recommend that complete denture wearers should brush their palate. Some advantages include better cleansing and blood flow, which may help to prevent or treat oral infections, such as denture-related stomatitis. However, there is no previous clinical trial dealing on that subject. Therefore, our goal is to evaluate whether palatal brushing may change the severity of denture stomatitis or counts of microbes on dentures and mucosa. After an initial exam and data collection, participants will receive instructions for palatal hygiene and will be assessed following 1 and 3 months. Collected data include patient-reported information, intraoral photographs and swabbing (for counting microbes). Tested Hypotheses: - There is no difference in the extent of palatal inflammation in edentulous patients with denture stomatitis before and after 3 months of palatal brushing. - There is no difference in the number of colony forming unit (CFU) of Candida isolated from palate and denture of patients affected by denture stomatitis before and after 3 months of palatal brushing.
The objectives of this study are to compare the efficacy and safety of Roxane's clotrimazole troches vs. Mycelex troches in HIV positive patients with oropharyngeal candidiasis, where this condition has been diagnosed by clinical examination and confirmed by fungal culture.
This is an observational, non-randomised trial to evaluate the effect of dietary type on infants oral candida colonization the investigators evaluated 90 infants in 1-24 months (45 breastfeeding and 45 bottle feeding infants) who attended to Yazd clinic for regular pediatric appointment. Infants with unremarkable health histories, normal weight, free of sign or symptom of oral candidiasis or other mucosal disease. Their mothers were also healthy and without sign or symptom of vagina or mammary candidiasis. Pacifier usage, use of antibiotics in last months, sign or symptom of oral candidiasis in infants or vagina and mammary candidiasis in mothers were exclusion criteria.
This trial aims to evaluate the efficacy of three experimental dentifrices to remove denture biofilm. Complete denture wearers will be instructed to brush their dentures with a specific toothbrush and four compositions: (1) A proprietary denture-specific paste (active comparator); (2) 0.2% chloramine T; (3) 1.0% chloramine T; (4) 0.01% fluorosurfactant. Each treatment will be used for periods of 7 days, and participants will be randomized to use them according to one of four sequences.
The purpose of this study is to assess if a propolis solution is able to remove plaque and kill microbes from complete dentures. The investigators will compare the results of the propolis-based denture cleanser with those obtained with an inactive solution.
Background: Oral candidiasis is most frequently found among the elderly .It is accompanied with oral pain, irritation, burning sensation. In addition, the altered taste sensation may cause nutrition compromise, which may affect ones diet. Management of superficial oral Candida is usually achieved by treatment with clotrimazole, a fungi static drug which is given five times per day with instruction to slowly suck on it with out the dentures. Working hypothesis and aims: Management of oral candidiasis is feasible. The major disadvantage of the mode of action now days is the substantively of the drug in the oral cavity and patient compliance. A sustained release varnish which is easily applied on the dentures, which also release the anti fungal drug for at least a day, may overcome some of the pit falls of the treatment applied today. Based on our past experience, in developing local sustained release varnishes for dental use, we anticipate that we can also formulate a special anti fungal sustained release varnish which will fit the special and unique needs of the elderly population. Methods: Sustained release varnish will be developed in our laboratory. The kinetics of release (using HPLC) and antifungal activity (Bioassays) will be examined in vitro. The formulation showing the optimal results will be tested on human subjects with oral candidiasis. The efficacy of the varnish will be examined clinically (reduction in symptoms), microbiology (reduction of oral fungal), pharmaceutically (release kinetics in vivo). Expected results: The clinical out come of one time varnish application will be improved compared to the five times application of lozenges (used today). The severity of the disease should decrease and the healing period should be shorten drastically. Importance: This is a novel pharmaceutical development of a local application of a dental varnish designed specially to the elderly population
