A bacterial infection of the periodontium that causes rapid attatchment loss and poor response to periodontal therapy has a grade of Aggressive periodontal disease

<h3>Periodontium </h3>

The cementum, gingiva, periodontal ligament (PDL), and alveolar bone make up the complex structure known as the periodontium. The periodontium's main purposes are to protect the underlying structures of the tooth from the oral microflora and to enable the tooth to connect to the bone.

An orthokeratinized or parakeratinized stratified squamous epithelium makes up the gingival epithelium. The gingiva, which has connective tissue and epithelial components, covers the supracrestal root surface and the alveolar bone. As it lines the gingival sulcus close to the tooth surface (enamel or cementum) and subsequently joins to it with hemidesmosomes, the gingival (oral) epithelium develops into the sulcular epithelium and junctional epithelium.

This genetic isolation can, over long periods of time, cause these two groups to become genetically incompatible. Factors that can lead to this genetic isolation include geographic separation and hostility among population groups.
