What are two refined recognized notions about the role of bacteria in the pathogenesis of periodontal disease?

(1) a pathogenic microbial biofilm is a prerequisite for periodontitis to develop, but the presence of a pathogenic oral biofilm alone is insufficient to cause the disease (2) while red complex mo are strongly associated with an inflammatory disease, there is no current evidence to support the argument that the red complex bacteria are potent initiators of the disease.

Components of the immune system that play an important role in combating periodontal disease are

(1) cellular defenders (phagocytes, lymphocytes) (2) complement system
