Yes. Is strep mitis contagious? Can it start in the oral cavity or nose and land in the sternum to infect it?  After triple bypass is the heart especially vulnerable to strep mitis? What happens if it isnt treated, i.e., whats the worse case scenario?  ( I am on six weeks daily of drip antibiotics: victomycin abd Erta,,,somthing).
Hi, Thanks for asking the query, Streptococcus mites is consistently present in dental plague, it usually causes pit and fissure caries and significantly less extensive than streptococcus mutants in causing dental caries. It was originally first isolated from patients with subacute bacterial endocarditis. Hope this helps out. Take care!
