15 patients with clinically outstanding prosthesis stomatitis due to microscopically proved candida infection underwent treatment with the antimycotic agent Clotrimazol. After two weeks' therapy improvement was observed in 6 patients (40%), healing in 4 patients (27%); 4 patients did not respond and in one patient the condition was temporally made worse. Examination two weeks after cessation of therapy showed that the clinical condition in 8 patients was as bad as before therapy (53%), and 4 patients (27%) were symptom-free. 3 patients (20%) had improved further. Suggestions for the treatment of prosthesis stomatitis can be derived from these findings.
