Candida Albicans in Syrian Patients With Periodontitis

Periodontitis is a significant oral health issue characterized by inflammation and destruction of the supporting structures of the teeth. Recent research has indicated that Candida albicans, a common fungal pathogen, may play a role in the exacerbation of periodontal diseases. This study aims to investigate the prevalence and impact of Candida albicans in Syrian patients diagnosed with periodontitis, contributing to a better understanding of its role in oral health within this population.
