What constitutes the orange complex bacteria?

Fusobacterium, Prevotella, Campylobacter
P. gingivalis, T. forsythia, T. denticola
P. intermedia, T. denticola, A.A
P. gingivalis, Fusobacterium, A.A

The correct answer is: Fusobacterium, Prevotella, Campylobacter

The orange complex bacteria are a group of bacteria commonly found in periodontal pockets and are associated with periodontal disease progression. Fusobacterium, Prevotella, and Campylobacter are all members of the orange complex bacteria group. In contrast, the other answer choices do not accurately represent the orange complex bacteria: - Choice B includes P. gingivalis, T. forsythia, and T. denticola, which are members of the red complex bacteria group. - Choice C includes P. intermedia, T. denticola, and A. actinomycetemcomitans, which are not part of the orange complex bacteria group. - Choice D includes P. gingivalis, Fusobacterium, and A. actinomycetemcomitans, which also do not belong to the orange complex bacteria group.
