RESUMO
Candida-associated stomatitis is the most common fungal oral infection in humans, with a prevalence reported in up to 77.5% of a population wearing dentures. Disease-associated Candida species have shifted from C. albicans to non-albicans species, these latter being responsible for more than 50% of the infections. Additionally, several factors as the presence of saliva, bacteria and dental prostheses materials characteristics seem to be related to the adhesion, colonization and biofilm formation of Candida. This study aimed (i) to discuss the factors that govern initial adherence, colonization and biofilm formation of Candida by means of a review article, in order to suggest future research and show how these factors may be controlled, therefore helping to prevent the disease; (ii) to verify the influence of several of these factors in the biofilm formation of C. albicans in vitro, on hydroxyapatite, acrylic resin and soft denture liner; (iii) to evaluate in situ biofilm formed on acrylic resin and denture liner specimens inserted in the lower dentures of 21 volunteers. For C. Note: the complete abstract is avaiable with the link or full eletronic digital theses or dissertations.
