About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Candidiasis, Oral focused on measuring propolis, therapeutic, miconazole, denture stomatitis

Eligibility Criteria

60 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Elderly patients with denture stomatitis

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Recent use of anti fungals or antibiotics(2 months or less), dementia

Sites / Locations

  • Unievangelica Anapolis
  • Unidade de Pesquisa Clinica HCRP-USP

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

Experimental

Active Comparator

Arm Label

Propolis

Miconazole

Arm Description

Standardized-propolis extract (EPP-AF®) oral gel formulation, 3 times a day, for 14 days

Miconazole 20mg/g oral gel,3 times a day, for 14 days

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Change from Newton Score at 14 days
Clinical assessment of buccal lesions localized at hard palate. The score utilized to measure the intensity of lesions will be Newton classification (I - punctate in the palate; II - extensive smooth reddened appearance; III -extensive reddening with hyperplastic growth) and the outcome will be the reduction of Newton's score comparing day 1 with day 14.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Assessment of gel acceptability
Application of hedonic scale on day 7
Assessment of adverse events
Questioning about rise of adverse events on days 7 and 14
Anti fungal activity
Colony forming unit count (CFU/mL) on days 1 and 14
