Localization of the most abundant species in subgingival biofilms.
(A) Overview of the subgingival biofilm with Actinomyces sp. (green bacteria), bacteria (red) and eukaryotic cells
(B) (large green cells on top). (B) Spirochaetes (yellow) outside the biofilm. (C) Detail of Synergistetes (yellow)
(C) in the top layer in close proximity to eukaryotic cells (green). (D) CFB-cluster (yellow) in the top and
(D) intermediate layer. (E) F. nucleatum in the intermediate layer. (F) Tannerella sp. (yellow) in the
(E) intermediate layer. Each panel is double-stained with probe EUB338 labeled with FITC or Cy3.
(F) The yellow color results from the simultaneous staning with FITC and Cy3 labeled probes. Bars are 10 µm.

Bacterial aggregates in oral plaque. (A) Transversal view of a test-tube brush found in subgingival plaque composed of filamentous cells
from the CFB-cluster. (B) Tannerella sp. (yellow) in a test-tube brush. (C) Longitudinal view of a test-tube brush with Lactobacillus sp.
(red rods) as central structures. F. nucleatum (green) and CFB-cluster filaments radiating from the central structures. (D) Longitudinal and t
ransversal view of a test-tube brush stained with the eubacterial probe. (E) Transversal view of the test-tube brush in panel D, composed
of Synergistetes group A species. (F) Transversal view of Streptococcus sp. (green) aggregation around a central cell (not stained)
in supragingival plaque. (G) Transversal view of supragingival plaque with Streptococcus sp. (green cocci) and Candida albicans (green hyphae)
in the top layer of the biofilm and forming corn cob structures growing outwards. Bars are 10 µm.
