title: Isolation of Capnocytophaga species from non-vital anterior teeth.
abstract: Root-canal infection is very common in India. Both aerobic and anaerobic organisms have been claimed for its aetiology. However, isolation of Capnocytophaga species from non-vital anterior teeth is sparse. In this study a solitary case of Capnocytophagal root canal infection is reported.
