Materials And Methods: An electronic search was carried out in the PubMed, SciELO, and academic Google databases, and descriptive, analytical, observational articles on MBO, OL, and ALL were included, following the PRISMA criteria. 642 were evaluated, duplicate articles, case reports, and those where only changes were reported during or after chemotherapy treatment were eliminated.
Statement Of Problem: Whether the disinfection of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) dentures eliminates Candida albicans biofilm is unclear.
Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to determine the antimicrobial effect of immersion in hydrogen peroxide (HO) and subsequent application of microwaves on the formation of C albicans biofilm on the surface of polished and unpolished PMMA disks.
Material And Methods: Polished and unpolished PMMA disks (n=40) were mounted in a Center for Disease Control (CDC) biofilm reactor by adding yeast-dextrose-peptone (YPD) broth inoculated with C albicans in a cell suspension for 24 hours.
