New growth media have been designed for the iron-controlled co-cultures of three oral bacteria. These media share a common core composition enabling the switch from mono- to co-cultures, and efficiently promote both planktonic and biofilm cultures of Porphyromonas gingivalis, Treponema denticola and Streptococcus gordonii.
