Classification
Higher order taxa
Bacteria – Terrabacteria group – Actinobacteria – Actinobacteria – Micrococcales – Micrococcaceae – Rothia [1]
Species
Rothia dentocariosa
Type strain: strain ATCC 17931= CCUG 35437 = CIP 81.83 = DSM 43762 = DSM 46363 = IFO (now NBRC) 12531 = JCM 3067 = NCTC 10917 = NRRL B-8017. [2]
Description and significance
First discovered:
Commonly found: Mouth and respiratory tract
Type of bacterium: Gram-positive
Morphology: Coccoid to rod-shaped. Younger colonies are round, convex, smooth or creamy and potentially resembling corynebacteria and staphylococci. Mature colonies may be raised and highly convoluted. [4]
Cultured: Yes
Functional role:
Importance: Morphologically similar to Actinomyces and Nocardia genus, which contain pathogenic members. [3]

Cell structure and metabolism
Cell wall:
Biofilm formation:
Motility: non-motile, non-sporogenic
Metabolic functions:
Reactions: catalase production, nitrate and nitrite reduction, esculin hydrolysis and acid production from glucose, sucrose, maltose, salicin and glycerol. [3]
Ecology
Aerobic [4]
Habitat: Oral cavity, teeth, respiratory tract (throat)
