Sources of Oral Candidiasis

Candida species are normal inhabitants of the mouth, throat, and the rest of the gastrointestinal tract. Usually, Candida yeasts live in and on the body in small amounts and do not cause any harm. However, the use of certain medications or a weakening of the immune system can cause Candida to multiply, which may cause symptoms of infection.
