Abstract
Most evidence suggests that only a finite number of bacteria are responsible for dental caries and periodontal diseases. This knowledge led to the development of microbial tests which can identify suspected pathogens. Current evaluation of the diagnostic power of microbial tests has shown that they have a low sensitivity and a low prognostic value. Despite these shortcomings, there are valid indications for microbiological-based diagnosis. Salivary microbial tests for the detection of mutans streptococci and lactobacilli may be useful
