dc.description.abstract | This study investigated the use of alternate material, their associated risks when placed within the removable dental prostheses. Denture stomatitis is a multifactorial condition affecting up to 70% of denture wearers, commonly associated long-term uses and with poor denture fit and hygiene. Candida-associated stomatitis is a frequent complication of this condition. Therapeutic approaches include denture repair, preventive measures, and the integration of antifungal agents into tissue conditioners to address both periprosthetic tissue damage and candida infection | en_US |
