Abstract

Background & Objectives: Denture stomatitis is an inflammatory change in the mucosa of the oral cavity in denture bearing areas mostly in upper residual ridge characterized by erythema and many microbial causes are behind of the diseases. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of denture induced stomatitis among population and detection of microbial profile causing denture stomatitis among persons wearing upper removable prosthesis in Duhok province.

Methods: A cross sectional study was performed on patients with Denture induced stomatitis. The data was collected during one year from February 2020 to February 2021.The study involved 46 patients had denture induced stomatitis (26 male and 20 females). The prevalence rate of dentures stomatitis and the associated factors were analyzed .

Results: Denture stomatitis showed as type I (58.70%), type II (36.96%) and type III (4.35%). Type I rate was the highest and followed by type II and type III denture stomatitis. Yeasts such as Candida albicans 14 (30.43%) was predominant followed by Cryptococcus glabrata 4 (8.7%), Cryptococcus laurentii 4 (8.7%) and Candida famata 1 (2.17%) in cases with denture stomatitis. The predominant bacterial microorganisms were gram positive in accordance to oxygen requirements mostly was facultative aerobes.

Conclusion: The study revealed three types of denture stomatitis; type I, type II and type III stomatitis; Regarding microbial detection; Candida albicans was the most identified yeast and facultative aerobic Gram positive bacterial accounted mostly compared with, aerobic and anaerobic.
