Studies of oral fungal have indicated that prevalence of Candida was significantly higher in diabetics both in healthy controls and complete denture wearers compared to non -diabetics. The present investigation was carried out in the department of medical microbiology and clinical samples were collected through regular visits to three main hospitals Al-Noor, Al-Amean, Al-Thawra and diagnosis was in the ALFA medical laboratory in Ibb City during period from January into November 2016 .In the current study 70 oral swabs samples were collected from surfaces of the upper of oral cavity and denture of all patients and then placed into a test tube containing 5ml subouraud\'s dextrose broth. The positive sample was processed for Gram\'s staining, Germ tube test, Chlamydospores test, Carbohydrate utilization medium examination and Chromagar test was made for differentiation between Candida a species .The results in this study showed that prevalence of Candida oral infection in Ibb City was 36(52%) positive with oral candidiasis out of 70 samples studied while, 34(48%) of patients studied were negative with oral candidiasis. The results also showed the distribution of oral Candida infection among diabetes and non-diabetes patients was 29(41%) and 7(11%) respectively, this results concordant with many previous studies. Candida albicans was the most prevalent types of Candida a species in this study. The results in current investigation showed a significantly relationship between crews users, diabetes patients, age and oral candidiasis. Through, our study we recommending that many future studies with advanced diagnostics methods have to do for conformed our results.
