Background: Acrylic resin as denture base material has been mostly used. Cleanliness of denture base
can be maintained by submerging the denture base into 0,2% chlorhexidine gluconate. Uncleaned denture base
can cause Denture Stomatitis.There are the flora accumulation like Candida albicans. Small white gingerhas
activity towards Candida albicans. Small white ginger has antifungal role because of its phenol compound.
Purpose: This study aims to know the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration value (MIC) of ethanol extract
concentration of small white ginger towards Candida albicans growth in submerge of heat cured removable
acrylic denture. Method: This experimental study was using post test only with control group design. Acrylic
resin was submerged into 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 100% tratment extract, and as the
control group, there are 0,2% chlorhexidine gluconate and 70% ethanol. The data analyzed usedOne Way
Anova test and Bonferroni Post Hoc test with 95% confidence level.Result: The result of the study shows
thatMIC value of 40%, 45%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80% 90% and 100% from treatment extract consecutivly are
13.07%; 18.36%; 23.67%; 28.87%; 36.84%; 42.10%; 49.98%; 52.61%. Conclusion: The conclusion of this
study is treatment extract can reduce the amount of Candida albicans and 100% treatment extract has better
antifungal effect compared to lesser concentrations and 0,2% chlorhexidine gluconate.
