Denture wearerusuallycareonly aboutthe denture hygiene and ignored the oral hygiene. The oral and denture hygiene can be maintainby using the combination of mouthwash and denture disinfections. Nowadays, microwave can be used as an alternative for denture disinfections and can be found in most household. Chlorhexidine has dual role, which are as the denture disinfectants and as the mouthwash. The aim of the study are to determine the influences of denture disinfectionsby using an 800 watts microwave in 3 minutes and 0,2% chlorhexidine solution in 5 minutes along with gargling using 0,2% chlorhexidine solution in 1 minute towards the amount of Candida albicans on the heat polimerization acrylic resin of the full denture wearer. This study is a clinical experiment and the subjects were selected according the inclusion criteria. The total number of subjects are18 person and were divided into 3 groups. Subjects were done a swab on the palate and the intaglio surface of the denture, then the swab were incubated and the number of Candida albicans were counted. One way Anova test shows the effects of denture disinfection using microwave and garglingusing chlorhexidine (p= 0,0001), and dentures disinfection with chlorhexidine solution and gargling using chlorhexidine solution (p=0,008 and p=0,014) towards the amount of Candida albicans. Tukey test shows different effects between those group towards the amount of Candida albicans (p=0,007). In conclusion, denture disinfections aloneis not enough to eliminates the Candida albicanspathogen, but mustbe combined with the oral cavity care. Denture disinfections with microwave and gargling using chlorhexidinesolution are more effective to prevent denture stomatitis.
