ABSTRACT
Gemella morbillorum is a facultatively anaerobic Gram-positive coccus which forms part of the normal flora of the oro-pharynx, the upper respiratory and gastrointestinal tracts. It rarely causes human infection, more often in immunocompromised hosts. We report a case of periradicular abscess due to Gemella morbillorum occurring in a young immunocompetent adult and review previous reports of infections due to Gemella morbillorum in the literature
