The most unaware cause of Infective endocarditis is Dental Caries. IE is a serious infection of the heart valves. The bloodstream is sterile under a normal healthy condition. Introduction of bacteria into blood stream leads to intra cardiac infection. The main causative organisms includes the Streptococcus viridans, Staphylococcus aureus, Coagulase negative streptococci. This disease occur mainly in damaged valve patient, immunosuppressive patients as these patient’s immune cannot battle against the invaded microbial agent. There occurs blockade in the valve due to the bacterial vegetation formation caused by the platelets and fibrin material. It is common sign and symptom would be fever, anemia, Roth’s spots, Osler’s sign. The dental caries is also a microbial infection which remains to be one of the main cause for IE. The microbial attack causing the dissolution of the hard tissues of the teeth penetrates to the deeper structures of the teeth and thus causing the bacterial invasion into the blood stream.
