Oral candidiasis

Oral candidiasis is an oral mucosal disease caused by a fungal-candidiasis infection. In recent years, due to the widespread clinical use of antibiotics and immunosuppressants, bacterial flora imbalance or decreased immunity has increased the number of people infected with fungi in the internal organs, skin, and mucous membranes, and the incidence of oral mucosal candidiasis has increased accordingly. . Gruby (1842) isolated yeast-like bacteria from lesions in patients with aphthous ulcers; Berkhont (1923) confirmed that the bacteria belonged to Candida, Candida, and Candida tropicalis. Among them, Candida albicans is the most important pathogen. Thrush (Snowmouth disease) is the most common oral candidiasis.
