Description

Verónica Dubois and co-authors check whether yeast fungi live in gum biofilms of people with HIV in Buenos Aires, in work from 2024. Mouth thrush is common in this group. Lasting growth of the fungi on mouth surfaces can help thrush take hold.

The study covered 51 patients on HIV treatment, with checks of teeth and gums. Staff took samples from under the gum line and from the mouth lining, 255 samples in all. Lab tests using DNA methods named each fungus found. Men made up most of the group, with a mean age near 41 years. The results show where the fungi hide, which can guide dental care for these patients.
