What is oral thrush? Oral thrush is a fungal infection in the mouth, it is also called oral candidosis and is caused by a group of yeasts called Candida. It can leave white patches in the mouth and can cause a loss of taste along with a painful burning sensation.
Candida, the yeast that causes thrush, is normally present in small amounts in the mouth and on other mucous membranes. It usually causes no harm. But when conditions are present that let the yeast grow uncontrolled, the yeast invades surrounding tissues and becomes an infection. Thrush is most commonly caused by the yeast Candida albicans. Less frequently, other forms of Candida can lead to thrush. There are many types of bacteria in your mouth that normally control the growth of Candida.
