Recognition of specific sialoglycan structures by oral streptococci impacts the severity of endocardial infection

Streptococcus gordonii and Streptococcus sanguinis are primary colonizers of the tooth surface. Although generally non-pathogenic in the oral environment, they are a frequent cause of infective endocarditis.
