Description Rothia dentocariosa is a species of Gram positive that grows under aerobic or anaerobic conditions and is a normal commensal of the oral cavity bacteria. It usually associated with dental caries and periodontal disease and has a variety of presentations, including septic arthritis, pneumonia, septicemias in renal transplant patients, and arteriovenous infections.
