What are the two most important groups of microorganisms in dentistry?
Bacteria and Viruses are the two most important microorganisms in dentistry. Bacteria usually grow in groups/colonies which produce a different shape than single bacteria. Bacteria are difficult to kill. Viruses are worse they can be so dangerous it can lead to death in a person. They live and multipy only inside a specific host cell. Antibiotics cannot destroy viruses just bacteria.
What is the difference between bacteria and viruses that shows the bacteria are living organisms and viruses are not?
Bacteria are able to reproduce on their own while viruses need a host to "hijack" so they can reproduce. Bacteria have metabolisms, catabolic and anabolic biochemical reactions going on in their cells all the time. Viruses do not. Bacteria can grow in size to a certain extent while viruses do not change in this regard. The definition of living things classify bacteria as a living thing, while viruses are not.
