FUNGAL INFECTION (CANDIDADIASIS (CANDIDOSIS Candida is a yeast-like fungus. Candida species are common in the normal oral flora and have been reported to be present in from 40% to 60% of the population (candidal carriers). So the presence of candida does not .mean you are infected with a fungal infection They are different species of candida the most common which is candida albicans , although other species (e.g., Candida tropicalis, Candida glabrata, Candida krusei) are less commonly identified and may cause infection, particularly in immune-suppressed and .neutropenic patients :Candidal carriages increased in "Women. "due to hormonal changes○ ."Individuals with blood group "O○ .High carbohydrates diet○ .Smokers○ :The host defenses We mentions above when the pathogens are present in the general environment or in the oral cavity it does not mean we are infected with a disease, the pathogens should overcome different lines of defense before it can :affect individuals, so the host defenses are ".Oral epithelium."1st lec○ Microbial interactions. "the oral cavity is inhibited by○ different types of bacteria and they forms a normal flora, any condition leading to absence of these normal flora will provide space(like antibiotics intake, steroids) for more pathogenic .(organism to occupied this space (e.g. Candida albicans So we agreed that candida is already there among✔ normal flora but the increased with numbers of C.albicans disappear of normal flora (spaces) .which make you affected with fungal infections (Saliva: (2 actions○ Dr. jumana karasneh |

:Diagnosis .Clinical mostly rely on it" you can give the patient antifungal"✔ and review him after 1-2 weeks if it disappears this confirm your diagnosis. If not we need biopsy. We follow this method for candidal leukoplakia and hyperplastic .candidosis
.Stained smear We take a swab from the lesion, then spread it out in✔ the slide, after that see it under the microscope. and we can see the hyphae

!?Q. which one to choose We need to consider while prescribe anti fungal the compliance of the patient, (e.g. you have a patient in 60 y.o. having complete denture with fungal infection, he'll never follow what you said, if you tell him to put antifungal gel in his denture 5-6 time daily), the patient prefer to take a pill 1-2 a day. And we always go for .topical cos. it has a less systemic effect :Note It is contraindication when you prescribe chlorhexidine mw. With .nystatin .Suspension and lozenges are not affective in exerostomia
