It is evident that this surface may hold pabulum and protection for the development and growth of myriads of bacteria. It is possible that cavities in the teeth, and gums diseased from deposits about the teeth, are more prolific, but probably not. Out of the \"seven nutrient media for bacteria in the oral cavity\" given by Miller, five are always present on a coated tongue, namely, normal saliva, buccal mucus, dead epithelium, particles of food, and exudations from diseased gums.
