Abstract(s)
Com o aumento de idosos em todo mundo, cresceu também o número de indivíduos edêntulos, com necessidade de reabilitação oral. Contudo, o uso de próteses pode causar inúmeras lesões na cavidade oral, como é o caso da Estomatite Protética, que é um processo inflamatório/infeccioso que acontece nas mucosas de suporte das próteses e é de etiologia multifactorial. Está intimamente relacionada com a presença da Candida Albicans, sendo a estomatite protética considerada a forma mais comum de candidíase oral. Esta revisão narrativa tem como objetivo principal comparar alguns dos tratamentos e medidas de prevenção descritos pela literatura para a estomatite protética. Os tratamentos devem ser dirigidos aos factores etiológicos de forma individual mas o respeito pelos princípios biomecânicos das próteses e as condições adequadas de higiene oral são condições mandatórias para o sucesso terapêutico. O uso de antifúngicos pode estar indicado mas a sua utilização deve ser adequada a cada paciente.
With the increase of the elderly worldwide, the number of edentulous individuals in need of oral rehabilitation has also grown. However, the use of prostheses can cause numerous lesions in the oral cavity, such as Denture Stomatitis, which is an inflammatory / infectious process that occurs in the prosthesis supporting mucosa and has a multifactorial etiology. It is closely related to the presence of Candida Albicans, and prosthetic stomatitis is considered the most common form of oral candidiasis. This narrative review aims to compare some of the treatments and prevention measures described in the literature for prosthetic stomatitis. Treatments should be addressed to etiological factors individually, but respect for the biomechanical principles of prostheses and proper oral hygiene conditions are mandatory conditions for therapeutic success. The use of antifungals may be indicated but their use should be appropriate for each patient.
