Kandidiasis oral merupakan suatu penyakit mulut yang disebabkan oleh pertumbuhan berlebihan dari jamur Kandida. Pertumbuhan berlebihan ini dapat disebabkan oleh berbagai faktor predisposisi seperti yang telah dijelaskan sebelumnya. Dalam kasus yang dilaporkan ini, terjadinya kandidiasis oral pada pasien disebabkan oleh pemakaian obat antibiotik berupa obat antituberkulosis yang dapat membunuh bakteri baik bakteri patogen maupun bakteri non patogen dalam rongga mulut dan juga steroid yang mampu menekan sistem imun dalam mulut sehingga infeksi mudah terjadi, salah satunya adalah infeksi jamur Kandida pada rongga mulut yang kita kenal dengan sebutan kandidiasis oral.
Dengan demikian, dapat diketahui bahwa kandidiasis oral merupakan suatu keadaan yang dapat terjadi akibat pemakaian obat antibiotik dan steroid. Oleh karena itu, diharapkan dokter umum dan dokter gigi memiliki pengetahuan akan efek samping pemakain obat antibiotik dan steroid terhadap kesehatan rongga mulut serta perawatan-perawatan yang dapat dilakukan terhadap komplikasi oral yang terjadi, sehingga pasien yang menggunakan obat-obatan tersebut mendapatkan penanganan yang tepat terhadap penyakit mulut yang dideritanya.
