1. Normal oral flora: Streptococcus vestibularis is part of the normal microbial community (microbiota) of the human oral cavity. Along with other commensal bacteria, it helps maintain a healthy balance of microorganisms in the mouth and may contribute to processes such as oral biofilm formation, nutrient metabolism, and immune modulation.

2. Opportunistic infections: While Streptococcus vestibularis is generally considered harmless in healthy individuals, it has been implicated in rare cases of opportunistic infections, particularly in immunocompromised individuals or those with underlying health conditions. In such cases, Streptococcus vestibularis may cause localized infections such as dental caries, periodontal disease, or oral abscesses, especially if oral hygiene is inadequate or if the individual is predisposed to oral infections.

3. Association with endodontic infections: Streptococcus vestibularis has been isolated from root canal infections (endodontic infections), where it may contribute to the polymicrobial nature of the infection along with other bacteria. While Streptococcus vestibularis alone may not be a primary causative agent of endodontic infections, it can play a role in the pathogenesis and progression of these infections, particularly in combination with other microorganisms.

4. Biofilm formation: Streptococcus vestibularis, like other streptococci, has the ability to form biofilms, which are complex communities of microorganisms embedded in a matrix of extracellular polymeric substances. Biofilms can adhere to surfaces such as teeth, dental restorations, and medical devices, contributing to the development of dental plaque, tartar, and device-associated infections.

Legend

• The interactions are based on data from 1000 healthy individuals using shotgun 10M reads Precision Biome, a provider in full conformity to EU regulations for health information
• The width of the lines indicates R² (the coefficient of determination)
• Green indicates positive slope
• Red indicates negative
• Interactions are not two way because incidence of each bacteria are different
