 AB    This study prospectively assessed the prevalence of oral candidal
       carriage and oral candidiasis in known HIV-seropositive individuals (n =
       121) and other dental attenders in Edinburgh (n = 614). Candida species
       were isolated from 57.4% of dental attenders and 93.4% of
       HIV-seropositive subjects. Clinical evidence of oral candidiasis was
       observed in 6% and 52% of these groups respectively, erythematous forms
       of candidiasis being the commonest in both groups.
