RESULT: In the denture wearers, HHV8 DNA was detected in 11 cases. Two of the controls amplified HHV8 DNA. Fisher's exact test demonstrates a significant difference between virus infection and using removable dentures (p = 0.015). CONCLUSION: Our findings suggested that HHV8 detection could be associated with use of denture.
