Summary   Candida albicans  and streptococci of the mitis group colonize the oral cavities of the majority of healthy humans. While  C. albicans  is considered an opportunistic pathogen, streptococci of this group are broadly considered avirulent or even beneficial organisms. However, recent evidence suggests that multi‐species biofilms with these organisms may play detrimental roles in host homeostasis and may promote infection. In this review we summarize the literature on molecular interactions between members of this streptococcal group and  C. albicans , with emphasis on their potential role in the pathogenesis of opportunistic oral mucosal infections.
