The most common form of oral candidiasis, denture-associated stomatitis, involves biofilm
growth on an oral prosthetic surface. Cells in this unique environment are equipped to …

Purpose. In vitro analyses of virulence, pathogenicity and associated host cell responses are
important components in the study of biofilm infections. The Candida-related infection …

Denture biofilms represent a protective reservoir for oral microbes. The study of the biology
of Candida in these biofilms requires a reliable model. A reproducible model of C. albicans …

Candida‐associated denture stomatitis presents as erythema of the palatal mucosa and is
caused by biofilms containing the fungus Candida albicans that co‐reside with oral bacteria …

Denture stomatitis (DS) is a fungal infection characterized by inflammation of the oral
mucosa in direct contact with the denture and affects up to 50% of denture wearers. Despite …

OBJECTIVE: To assess the contribution of Candida biofilms to the etiology of denture
stomatitis. STUDY DESIGN: Samples of denture acrylic were retrieved from patients with …

Microarrays were used to identify changes in gene expression associated with Candida
albicans biofilm development. Two biofilm substrates (denture and catheter), and two C …

Fungal biofilms may contribute to the occurrence of denture stomatitis. The objective of the
study was to investigate the biofilm formation and morphology of Candida albicans in …

The aim of this study was to investigate the composition of microcosm denture plaque
biofilms and the susceptibility of Candida spp. within these biofilms to antifungal agents. An …

OBJECTIVE: The aim was to determine the ability of several thin-film polymer formulations,
with and without incorporated antifungals, to inhibit Candida albicans biofilm growth on …
