Candidiasis: Other Forms
Treatment:
- Administer topical or systemic antifungal agents.
- If dentures are involved, ensure they are removed at night, properly cleaned, and soaked in liquid antifungal medication.
- New dentures may be needed to improve fit or increase the vertical dimension of the mouth to prevent recurrence.
- In cases of angular cheilitis unresponsive to topical antifungals, topical antibiotics may be needed to cover for staph.
