Saliva were taken with swab method using wood catton swab, then put into tube filled with stuart medium, then isolated to blood agar, after that put into incubator for 24 hours then carried out catalase test, H2O2 3%, and gram color test to obtain aerob bacteria.Results: Identified bacteria from patient’s saliva with fixed orthodontic appliance as many as 44 aerob bacteria positive gram, they are Streptococcus mitis, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus, and Enterococcus faecalis.
