Statement Of Problem: Acrylic denture base resins are subject to colonization by oral and nonoral bacteria, contributing to the onset of denture stomatitis. However, how the addition of antimicrobial substances affects the mechanical and optical properties of additively manufactured denture base resin remains unclear.
Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to investigate the surface roughness, color stainability, and flexural strength of antimicrobial-modified, additively manufactured polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) denture base resin in tooth and gingiva colors.

Statement Of Problem: Denture stomatitis (DS) is a common oral disorder in patients with complete maxillary dentures. Typical treatments such as nystatin or azoles lead to drug resistance after a long period. Several studies have shown the antifungal activity of statins against Candida albicans; however, studies on the antifungal effect of atorvastatin against DS are lacking.

Objectives: The objective of the study was to determine the antimicrobial efficacy of Lavandula angustifolia (True Lavender extract) towards Candida albicans, Streptococcus mutans, Staphylococcus aureus pathogens. Varying proportions of the extract was incorporated into polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) denture base resin and the anti-adherent effect was investigated.
Methods: An in-vitro study was performed after pure extract was obtained from Lavandula angustifolia (LA) flowers using a solvent based hot extraction process.
