Individualized Oral Health Care for Dysphagic, Care‐Dependent Patients With Acquired Brain Injury: An Exploratory Predefined Subgroup Analysis of a Cluster Nonrandomized Controlled Trial

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract summarizes an exploratory predefined subgroup analysis of dysphagic, care‐dependent adults with acquired brain injury undergoing inpatient neurorehabilitation. Three wards implemented standard oral care, while three wards implemented the structured individualized MOHIT protocol.

Frailty and Oral Health: Associations with Candidiasis, Prosthesis Use, and Hyposalivation

Geriatrics
Background/Objectives: Frailty syndrome favors the deterioration of health; therefore, identifying associated factors is essential for establishing preventive measures. Oral candidiasis is a factor that may be related to the onset of frailty.

Gaining More Insight into the Determinants of Species Pathogenicity in the Oral Cavity

European Journal of Inflammation, 2014
Candida infection (candidiasis) is potentially life threatening and can occur in almost all anatomical sites, including the mouth. Candida species are in fact the most common fungal pathogens isolated from the oral cavity and frequently cause superficial

Influence of nanohydroxyapatite mouthwash on the growth of Candida albicans biofilm on milled denture surfaces: An in vitro study

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose There is a need for effective solutions for the persistent prevalence of denture stomatitis (DS) in denture‐wearing populations. This study assessed the impact of nanohydroxyapatite (nanoHAP) nanoparticles on Candida albicans biofilm formation on milled polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) denture bases.

Inflammatory and Immunological Basis of Periodontal Diseases

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
The periodontal lesion emerges as an evolving immunological battlefield, where host–microbiome interactions, dysregulated immune responses, fragile resolution mechanisms, and inflammophilic dysbiosis converge to shift the balance from homeostasis to unrestrained tissue destruction.

Mechanisms of action of Lactobacillus spp. in the treatment of oral candidiasis [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Biology
Candida albicans is often associated with oral candidiasis, and drug-resistance profiles have contributed to an increase in morbidity and mortality. It is known that Lactobacillus spp.

Pharmacological Management of Oral and Esophageal Candidiasis: A Clinical Pharmacotherapy Perspective

Candida spp. are common components of normal microbiota in the oral cavity. However, Candida albicans can be a primary cause of superficial infections in the oral cavity and esophagus, especially in immunocompromised individuals.

Autoimmunity and Periodontitis

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
In a microbe‐driven inflammatory environment, peptidyl‐arginine deiminase (PAD) enzymes from neutrophils and Porphyromonas gingivalis citrullinate both microbial and self‐antigens. B cell presentation of citrullinated or self‐mimicking epitopes activates T cells that assist B cells in antibody isotype switching, affinity maturation, epitope spreading ...
