Evaluation of the efficacy of stomatitis prevention in prosthetics with complete dentures with additional fixation with the cream.

BACKGROUND

The objective of the study is to evaluate a microbiological efficacy of prevention and development of prosthetic stomatitis in full removable prosthetics.

MATERIAL AND METHODS

All patients with complete absence of the teeth on the lower jaw were divided into four groups: individuals who used full removable dentures and did not use any fixation agents and adhered to conventional oral hygiene; patients with full removable dental prostheses who used the cream "Corega" to strengthen the fixation from the first day of prosthetics and adhered to conventional oral hygiene; patients with complete removable dentures who used Corega Comfort (GSK) to strengthen the fixation from the first day of prosthetics and adhered to conventional oral hygiene; patients with complete removable dentures who used Corega Comfort (GSK) to enhance the fixation and performed antibacterial cleaning of dentures using Biotablets "Corega" for cleaning dentures from the first day of prosthetics. Microbiological and mycological examination of the patients included microscopic examination of smears using conventional and luminescent methods of staining smears from the denture surface.

RESULTS

The data obtained show that probiotic species of microbial flora of the oral cavity are prone to colonization on the surface of complete removable acrylic dental prostheses when using fixation creams "Corega" and Corega Comfort (GSK), which is not characteristic of acrylic dentures without additional fixation. This flora much exceeds virulent one and Candida fungi quantitatively.

CONCLUSIONS

It can be concluded that the use of complete removable dentures with the application of biotablets "Corega", can significantly (one hundred times) reduce the contamination of the dental prosthesis after 1 month of the follow-up. In general, pathogenic inoculation the application of this type of denture hygiene the makes it possible to achieve reduction of the number of streptococcal colonies by several times.
