fractions decrease planktonic cells and biofilms of and .

Extracts of species have been shown to reduce biofilms, demonstrating their antimicrobial effects. The extracts can be fractionated to optimize their potential. In this study, we evaluated the antimicrobial activity of fractions against planktonic cells and biofilms of and .

Cryptocarya moschata extract decreases single and mixed biofilms on acrylic resins.

Objective: This study proposed to assess the effect of Cryptocarya moschata extract on single and mixed biofilms formed on denture base and reline acrylic resin.

Materials And Methods: Single and mixed biofilms of Candida albicans and Streptococcus mutans were formed on the samples and treated with C. moschata extract; Nystatin solution at 100,000 IU/mL or Penicillin antibiotic solution at 100,000 IU/mL; or PBS solution.

Candida species as potential risk factors for oral squamous cell carcinoma: Systematic review and meta-analysis.

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is considered a multifactorial disease and has been associated with microbial infections, although the association with Candida spp. is still controversial. This systematic review focused on clinical trials which evaluated the relation between oral Candida spp colonization and OSCC.

Influence of brushing with an antiseptic soap solution on the surface and biological properties of a hard chairside reline resin.

Purpose: To evaluate the influence of brushing with a specific antiseptic soap solution on the surface (roughness and hardness) and biological properties of a specific hard chairside reline resin.

Methods: The hard chairside reline resin specimens were made and distributed to the following groups according to disinfectant solution: sodium hypochlorite 0.5% (SH), Lifebuoy solution 0.

Influence of brushing with antiseptic soap solution on the surface and biological properties of an acrylic denture base resin.

Purpose: To evaluate the influence of brushing with specific antiseptic soap solution on the surface (roughness, hardness, and color stability) and biological properties of a specific heat-polymerized denture base resin.

Methods: 189 denture base acrylic resin specimens (10 mm x 1.2 mm) were made and distributed into three groups: sodium hypochlorite 0.

In vivo antifungal activity and biocompatibility of Cryptocarya moschata.

The objective of this study was evaluate, in vivo model, the antifungal activity of Cryptocarya moschata extract against Candida albicans and its biocompatibility. The animals (N = 50) were divided into groups (n = 5): CI/CG: candidiasis was induced and treated with C. moschata extract (0.

Do denture cleansers influence the surface roughness and adhesion and biofilm formation of Candida albicans on acrylic resin? Systematic review and meta-analysis.

Purpose: To evaluate the influence of denture cleansers on the surface roughness, Candida albicans adhesion, and biofilm formation on denture base acrylic resins.

Study Selection: Electronic databases and gray literature were searched using an individual search strategy. In vitro studies that evaluated the effects of immersion in denture cleansers on the surface roughness (µm) and antimicrobial activity (CFU/mL) on samples of heat-polymerized denture base acrylic resins were included.

Antimicrobial efficacy and biocompatibility of extracts from Cryptocarya species.

This study evaluated the efficacy of Cryptocarya spp extracts on biofilm of Candida albicans and its biocompatibility. Mature biofilm of C. albicans was formed on denture base acrylic resin samples and the fungicidal effect of the extracts was evaluated by Alamar Blue® assay, counting colony-forming units (CFU/mL) and confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM).

Positioning errors of dental implants and their associations with adjacent structures and anatomical variations: A CBCT-based study.

Purpose: The objective of the present study was to evaluate the prevalence of dental implants positioning errors and their associations with adjacent structures and anatomical variations by means of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT).

Materials And Methods: CBCT images of 207 patients (584 dental implants) were evaluated by 2 oral radiologists. The distance between the implant and the adjacent teeth/implants was measured and classified as adequate (≥1.
