title: [Denture stomatitis: results of a follow-up study].
abstract: Elimination of mechanical and traumatic factors, consistent oral hygiene, and local antimycotic therapy led to rapid healing of the inflammatory alterations in most cases of stomatitis prothetica. Long-time observations showed a high frequency of recurrence; the way in which the prosthesis was worn was apparently a major contributing factor. These alterations often appeared as spotty or flat inflammatory red patches (i.e. denture stomatitis) and were sometimes combined with inflammatory granular or papillary hyperplasia and angular cheilitis. The associated subjective symptoms were slight or entirely absent.
