Summary

Description
English: Normally found as an inhabitant of the human mouth and respiratory tract, this photomicrograph of a Gram-stained specimen, revealed numerous Gram-positive, Rothia dentocariosa bacteria, formerly known as Stomatococcus mucilaginosus. You will note that the clustering of these organisms gives rise to a filamentous patterning, as they attach to one another. R. dentocariosa has also been observed as coccoid shaped. R. dentocariosa was originally isolated from samples of dental caries, hence its name.
