Abstract

Oral candidiasis, or "thrush," is an inflammation of the tongue and mucous membranes of the mouth characterized by an overgrowth of the oral fungus Candida albicans. This type of study uses True Experimental. Antifungal Activity Test Areca flower extract (Areca catechu L.) has antifungal activity against Candida albicans with a clear zone of 23.21 mm at a concentration of 100 ppm. And the MIC value is 85ppm. Extract does not retrieve MFC results. As a result of the antifungal activity test, the highest transparent area was obtained at 23.21 mm at a concentration of 100ppm, and it was evaluated as moderate. The concentration of MIC extract is 85 ppm. Counting MFC colonies resulted in still growing colonies. This means that the flower extract (Areca catechu L.) was fungistatic rather than fungicidal
