Abstract:
In dentistry, denture stomatitis (DS), a frequent inflammatory illness of the oral mucosa mostly related to denture wearing, is a major concern. DS is a common oral mycotic infection for those who wear partial or total dentures. The most often found species of Candida that may be isolated from both healthy and diseased oral tissues is Candida albicans. DS is associated with uneven denture surfaces, inadequate oral hygiene, or ill-fitting dentures. The diagnosis and management of DS in a 72-year-old male patient is presented in this case study. The patient complained about burning in his palate and having difficulty chewing. Upon clinical examination, erythema and inflammation were seen in the palate region. The history and clinical findings were consistent with DS. The patient was told to completely stop using dentures. Interventions were included in the treatment plan, such as diode laser therapy, topical ozonated oil application, and teaching about denture hygiene. The third day\'s follow-up visit revealed a progressive healing of the lesions and symptom relief. The lesion fully resolved on the sixth day. This case emphasizes the value of all-encompassing management techniques in treating DS successfully. It also highlights the significance of patient education, good oral hygiene, and focused therapy in producing favorable results.
