Status and treatment of denture stomatitis patients: a 1‐year follow‐up study

Abstract

The material comprised 48 patients, 19 exhibiting atrophic and 29 hyperplastic denture stomatitis. Twenty-seven patients with healthy mucosa served as a reference group.. Past history, resilience of the mucosa, denture function and scores of palatal er>'thema, plaque and yeasts were recorded. The therapeutic program included new dentures^ surgical and nystatin treatment, hygienic instruction and nutritional advice. The results concerning past history showed significantly more smokers, more patients with recurrent urinary tract infections in combinadon with prolonged antibiotic therapy,, and more patients M^earing their dentures at nighn in the denture stomatitis group. Nystatin treatment did not affect the healing of palatal erythema evaluated after 1 year. The treatment program evaluated after 1 year resuhed in complete healing of the mucosa in 50% of patients. The remaining 50% had persisting erythema of varying intensity. The unhealed cases showed significantly more yeasts and plaque on the denture base compared to the healed patients and the reference group. An e^-^aluation of factors common to failure of healing is presented.

Development of a Contemporary Animal Model of Candida albicans-Associated Denture Stomatitis Using a Novel Intraoral Denture System

“…Symptoms of Candida-associated denture stomatitis range from mild to severe, including palatal edema, painful inflammation, and papillary hyperplasia (small pebble-like sores) (49). Denture stomatitis can have a negative impact on the quality of life for those affected, with very high recurrence rates despite treatment with antifungal therapy (2,3,5,7,12,38,47). Despite its prevalence, the pathogenesis of DS and the role of the immune response are not understood.…”

Approach to the most prevalent oral disorders among the elderly: an integrative review focusing on primary health care

“…Several drugs alleviate the symptoms and clinical signs of the infection, but are not sufficient to eradicate the fungus from the dentures, causing high recurrence rates due to reinfection 31 . In addition, systemic agents, such as ketoconazole, fluconazole and itraconazole may produce varied adverse effects and drug interactions 32 .…”

“…A condição é geralmente assintomática, mas quando sinais e sintomas estão presentes, é relatado sangramento da mucosa, sensação de ardor, sabor desagradável, boca seca e halitose. (ARENDORF; WALKER, 1987) Existem diversas propostas de diferentes autores (BERGENDAL, 1982;BERGENDAL;ISACSSON, 1983;BUDTZ-JORGENSEN, 1970) para a classificação das diferentes formas de apresentação da estomatite por prótese total. Uma das mais difundidas é a classificação de Newton, (NEWTON, 1962) por ser considerada simples e objetiva.…”
