Which microbe is key in ANUG/ANUP?

  1. P. gingivalis

  2. A.A

  3. T. denticola

  4. Fusobacterium nucleatum

The correct answer is: T. denticola

One potential reason why the other options are incorrect is that while all microbes listed are associated with periodontal disease, T. denticola is specifically known to be a key contributor to ANUG/ANUP. Other microbes listed may also be found in the oral microbiome, but they may not be as strongly linked to this condition in particular. Therefore, T. denticola would be a more appropriate choice when identifying the key microbe in ANUG/ANUP.
