POST INSERTION

 After 48 hours- record for occlusion correction

 most common complaint - overextension causing laceration

 after 6-8 months - recall and 2 relining / rebasing, this is due to high chances
of ridge resorption

 if occlusion correction required
--- at the time of insertion
--- or then rearticulate the denture with new jaw relation then make necessary
corrections

 speech problems are commonly seen - advise patient that it will correct
automatically

 increased salivation is due to increased parasympathetic activity - convince patient - recall and review after 1 week ok

 Candidiasis - opportunistic infection, due to the improper oral hygiene of both denture and oral cavity, continuous wearing of denture even at night

 Treatment
1. Mouth only - topical nystatin gel/solution, stop denture wearing for few days
2. oral plus systemic - amphotericin B
3. Oral + systemic + immunosuppressants + broad-spectrum antibiotics
- fluconazole ( because nystatin I won’t work here)
