Evaluation of <i>Candida albicans</i> Adherence to CAD‐CAM Milled, 3D‐Printed, and Heat‐Cured PMMA Resin and Efficacy of Different Disinfection Techniques: An In Vitro Study

Abstract

C. albicans adherence to the polymers varies greatly based on the types of PMMA. 3D-printed had the highest fungal biofilm attachment. Microwave irradiation, mechanical brushing, and Polident overnight tablets had comparable results in removing C. albicans from all types of PMMA, while glutaraldehyde was not as effective.
