Common Oral Manifestations in a Denture Wearer Patients with Suspected Diabetes Mellitus
Abstract
Background. Acute pseudomembranous candidiasis or often called oral thrush is a disease in the oral cavity caused by the overgrowth of Candida albicans. Angular cheilitis is an inflammatory lesion on the corners of the mouth. The purpose of this case report is to document the oral manifestations in patients with suspected diabetes mellitus. Case Report. A 57-year-old woman came with complaints of a burning sensation throughout the mouth and lips and presented a white spot on her tongue with soreness in the past year. The patient has diabetes mellitus and regularly takes medication. Despite this, the patient still has experienced classical signs of diabetes mellitus which are polyphagia, polydipsia, and polyuria. Intraorally the burning sensations were related to the full denture continuous wearness and were diagnosed as acute pseudomembranous candidiasis and angular cheilitis. The treatment given to this patient was symptomatic therapy in the form of Aloclair Plus mouthwash, causative therapy in the form of Nystatin oral suspension and referral to an internist to further examine the condition of diabetes mellitus, and supportive therapy in the form of lanolin and vaseline. Treatment ends with the provision of communication, instruction, and education.References
