Abstract
Denture stomatitis is a common disease that affects denture wearers and its main cause is C. albicans. This microorganism easily adheres to acrylic resin, especially because its surface features, as high roughness and hydrophobicity. Initially, the aim of this study is to verify if four products (tissue sealant derived from snake venom, ethyl-cyanoacrylate, butyl-cyanoacrylate ou octyl-cy…
Effect of tissue sealant based on snake venom and cyanoacrylates applied on acrylic resin's surface on quantity and activity of C. albicans cells, cytotoxicity on gingival fibroblasts (phase I) and surfaces degradation assay (phase II), AP.R

Abstract
The denture stomatitis is a multifactorial inflammatory disease closely related immunosuppression and colonization by the fungus Candida albicans on the acrylic resin of total dentures, in the form of biofilms highly resistant to conventional treatments. Inherent factors to the material that manufactures the dentures, as well as cell surface characteristics of the fungus are related to gr…
