Abstract

This study included 72 participants with oral halitosis (35 men and 37 women), who had been clinically diagnosed and ranged in age from 14 to 70. 95 samples were obtained using sterile paper points (size 30) or sterile cotton swabs, in either aerobic or anaerobic conditions, thioglycolate broth was transported and blood agar was used for culture (for 48–72 hours). The bacteria were recognized by means of biochemical testing, tests for antibiotic susceptibility, and morphological and cultural features. Results revealed that 13 different bacterial species were isolated in this study, including Bacteriodes spp. (26 isolates), Viridans Streptococci (18 isolates), Peptostreptococci (19 isolates), Actinomyces spp. (15 isolates), Porphyromonas spp. (8 isolates), Fusobacterium spp. (9 isolates), Veillonella spp. (5 isolates), Streptococcus spp. (10 (2 isolates). The dominant anaerobic bacterial species and genera in instances of halitosis is the conclusion.
