	The Bacterial Flora of Humans
		Streptococcus pneumoniae causes 95 percent of all bacterial pneumonia.
		An enzyme on the cell surface of Streptococcus mutans, glycosyl transferase, is apparently involved in initial attachment of the bacterial cells to the tooth surface and in the conversion of sucrose to dextran and levan polymers (glucans) which form the extracellular matrix of plaque.
		Streptococcus mutans appears to be important in the initiation of dental caries because its activities lead to colonization of the tooth surfaces, plaque formation, and localized demineralization of tooth enamel.

	Re: Would this really CURE BB? at Body Odor & Bad Breath Forum
		People who suffer from chronic bad breath either lack, or have very low levels, of the normally predominant Streptococcus salivarius, and their tongues are inhabited by undesirable bacteria often responsible for bad breath....
		salivarius appears to help digest protein and may assist in the breakdown of any incompletely digested proteins and their undesirable by-products left in the gut which can cause putrefication.
		salivarius is classified as a facultative bacterium, which means that it can survive and grow in both anaerobic (without oxygen) and aerobic (with oxygen) environments, although its main effects take place in anaerobic conditions.
