Distribution of microorganisms isolated from individuals at 3-month usage of removable dental prosthesis
| Microorganisms | n | % |
|---|---|---|
| Streptococcus species | 23 | 76.7 |
| CONS | 13 | 43.3 |
| Staphylococcus aureus | 25 | 83.3 |
| Candida albicans | 24 | 80 |
| Klebsiella pneumoniae | 8 | 26.7 |
| Diptheroid | 17 | 56.7 |
| E. coli | 11 | 36.7 |
| Micrococcus species | 3 | 10 |
| Lactobacillus species | 9 | 30 |
| Enterococcus species | 13 | 43.3 |
| Pseudomonas species | 1 | 3.3 |
Table 3 and Figure 5 show the percentage distribution of microbial species isolated from number of individuals at the third month of usage of removable dental prosthesis. It showed that there was overall increase in all the microorganism which was found. It shows the highest percentage distribution of Staphylococcus aureus among all the isolated microorganisms which was found to be 83.3% with n=25. Candida albicans was found to be 80% with n=24. Streptococcus species was found to be 76.7% with n=23. The least percentage distribution was found to be 3.3% in Pseudomonas with n=1
