“…Several risk factors such as age, gender, nutrition, level of oral hygiene, smoking habits, denture usage, salivary pH, and xerostomia are associated with the susceptibility of DM patients to Candidiasis. 12,17,32,33 However, in this study not all these factors were revealed. A study by Lynne et al showed that Candida could be detected in 74.8% of 107 subjects with DM, namely 36 of 52 controlled subjects (69.23%) and 44 of 55 uncontrolled subjects (80%).…”

“…This research is appropriate with the study of Al-Maweri et al,which showed there was no significant difference in xerostomia experienced by patients with controlled DM (HbA1C < 9) and uncontrolled DM (HbA1C > 9). 18 The causes there is no difference in the number of xerostomia in the two groups of respondents was controlled type 2 DM patients who consumed xerogenic drugs, such as anti-diabetic drugs, betablocker drugs (anti-hypertensive drugs), anticholinergics, and antihistamines. These drugs inhibit the action of muscarinic-3 (M3) receptors and can cause reduced salivary secretion and the occurrence of xerostomia.…”

“…Xerostomia and hyposalivation can have a negative impact on the quality of life of the patient, causing situations such as stress or anxiety. In addition, a decrease in saliva flow can increase susceptibility to tooth decay or fungal infections of the mouth, so this condition should be considered critical 6 . More than a thousand drugs have been linked to xerostomia.…”
