I don't know... collegeboy30000 told me this may work. His microbe of choice is the ever popular gram negative bact. porphyromonas gingivalis (reserve room for oooohhhhhs and ahhhhhs) I may have a soft spot for Streptococcus sanguis. Both good options.
 
Gardneralla vaginalis
LOL... Thanks for playing along Armorshell... how about you tell the forum the story about how you or your loved one got that in their mouth. The long version is probably better than the abridged one bc face it, people on here need to read something worthwhile.
 
I prefer the oral parasite Entamoeba gingivalis. Doing a presentation on it next week 😛
 
I am a fan of S. mutans
 
Ok this thread should be called the "official nerd" thread which we will all be one day when we are actually attending dental school.

You finding any good info on that? I have to give a presentation on an parasite for my parasitology class, and Id like to do something with oral parasites (not including bacteria). We talked about E. gingivalis (very) breifly.
