Abstract
Background: Candida Albicans (C. albicans) is a major fungal infection affecting the majority of complete denture wearers and causes denture stomatitis (DS) which has many local treatment modalities, such as Chlorohexidine mouthwash and the Diode Laser. Their clinical impact on denture Accuracy, Retention, and the Patients ability to utilize dentures normally has not yet been discussed. Hence, a complete dentures Accuracy titled Trueness and Precision is a vital hidden key for achieving its success post-disinfection. Objectives: This studys objective was to evaluate and compare Diode Laser and Chlorhexidine mouthwashs impact on Trueness, Precision, Retention, and the Patients oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) in complete denture wearers. Materials and Methods:An overall of 16 complete edentulous patients were elected, dentures constructed from Heat-cure acrylic resin, and grouped equally owing to the antifungal disinfectant employed into Group I (Diode Laser) and Group II (Chlorhexidine). Assessments were carried out pre- and post-disinfectant application in both groups. The Pre-Disinfectant assessments of Trueness and Precision took place before delivery whereas, those of Retention andOHRQoLwere carried out immediately post-delivery. All the Post-Disinfectant assessments were carried out 60 days following delivery. Results: There was an insignificant difference between Diode Laser and Chlorhexidine mouthwash regarding Trueness, Precision, Retention, and OHRQoLin maxillary complete dentures. Conclusion:It has been concluded that the Diode Laser beam and the 2% Chlorhexidine mouthwash are safe antifungal Heat-cure CD disinfectants regarding Trueness, Precision, Retention, and the OHRQoL.
