Up to 60% of the population carry Candida albicans as part of the oral flora without having evidence of candidiasis. The pleomorphic clinical manifestations of oral candidiasis viz. thrush, denture stomatitis, angular cheilitis, median rhomboid glossitis, speckled leukoplakia, and chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis and its variants are briefly discussed. Current diagnostic techniques of oral candidiasis (OC) are reviewed. A simple and quick method of helping the clinician in the diagnosis of OC by taking a direct smear of the lesion is emphasized. OC is a 'disease of the diseased'. As a routine a full blood picture, serum iron and serum folate levels should be looked at. Several predisposing causes of OC need to be investigated. An up-date on the treatment of OC with nystatin, amphotericin B lozenges, clotrimazole and miconazole is made.
高达60%的人群携带白色念珠菌作为口腔菌群的一部分，但并无念珠菌病的证据。本文简要讨论了口腔念珠菌病的多形性临床表现，即鹅口疮、义齿性口炎、口角炎、正中菱形舌炎、斑点状白斑、慢性黏膜皮肤念珠菌病及其变体。对口腔念珠菌病（OC）的当前诊断技术进行了综述。强调了一种通过对病变进行直接涂片来帮助临床医生诊断OC的简单快速方法。OC是一种“患病者的疾病”。通常应检查全血细胞计数、血清铁和血清叶酸水平。需要对OC的几种诱发原因进行调查。介绍了用制霉菌素、两性霉素B含片、克霉唑和咪康唑治疗OC的最新情况。
