    Author: Felix DH, Wray D.
    Journal: J Oral Pathol Med; 1993 Oct; 22(9):418-20. PubMed ID: 8301607.
    Abstract:
    This study prospectively assessed the prevalence of oral candidal carriage and oral candidiasis in known HIV-seropositive individuals (n = 121) and other dental attenders in Edinburgh (n = 614). Candida species were isolated from 57.4% of dental attenders and 93.4% of HIV-seropositive subjects. Clinical evidence of oral candidiasis was observed in 6% and 52% of these groups respectively, erythematous forms of candidiasis being the commonest in both groups.
