[Analyses of the mycological flora of the mouth cavity].
The paper reports on mycologic cross-sectional explorations of the oral cavity in patients considered to be particularly susceptible to the attack of blastomycetes. 1,333 swabs taken from the cavities of 385 patients have been analysed. The analysis revealed that it were not the patients regarded as high-risk group who showed the highest incidence, but a group of denture (made of polymethacrylate) wearers, not regarded under this aspect so far, was found to have an increased disposition to oral blastomycete population. The paper presents a therapy conception for the elimination of these blastomycetes through appropriate mouth and denture hygiene and conclusions for medical and dental practice.
