Abstract

Isolates of Streptococcus milleri were tested for cariogenicity in gnotobiotic Liverpool hooded rats. Representative strains of Streptococcus mitis, Streptococcus mutons, Streptococcus salivarius and Streptococcus sanguis were included for comparative purposes. Some strains of Strep, milleri appeared to be considerably more cariogenic than the strains of Strep. mitis, strep. salivarius or Strep. sanguis examined, although not as cariogenic as the strains of Strep. mutans.
