Effectiveness of Chitosan versus Natural Aloe Vera on Candida Adherence in Denture Soft Lining Material

Scientifica, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Background. Soft denture lining materials act as a cushion between the denture base and tissues. Alongside having many advantages, its main problem is candida growth due to its rubbery and porous texture. Many interventions have been performed to halt the growth of candida within soft lining materials such as the use of antifungal therapy and strict ...

Histopathologic study of rat connective tissue responses to maxillofacial silicone elastomers

Journal of Materials Science: Materials in Medicine, 2009
The aim of this histopathologic study was to assess and compare the subcutaneous connective tissue reaction to three different maxillofacial silicone elastomers (Cosmesil, Multisil, Episil). The test materials were directly inserted subcutaneously into the dorsal subcutaneous tissue of Wistar albino rats.
