Disease activation maps for subgingival dental calculus identification based on intelligent dental optical coherence tomography [PDF]

open access: goldTranslational Biophotonics, 2021
During the treatment of periodontitis, removal of dental calculus is essential but still tricky despite developments of several imaging modalities. In this research, we propose a novel approach to provide an intuitive guidance, to automatically detect ...

Microbial differences between dental plaque and historic dental calculus are related to oral biofilm maturation stage [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiome, 2019
Background Dental calculus, calcified oral plaque biofilm, contains microbial and host biomolecules that can be used to study historic microbiome communities and host responses. Dental calculus does not typically accumulate as much today as historically,

Compositional Changes and Comparative Analysis of Oral Microbial Community During the Formation of Canine Dental Calculus [PDF]

open access: goldAnimals
Periodontal disease remains a prevalent clinical condition in dogs, significantly impacting the quality of life of affected animals. Dental calculus is closely associated with periodontal disease, primarily because it serves as a reservoir for dental ...

Metagenomic analysis of dental calculus in ancient Egyptian baboons [PDF]

open access: gold, 2019
Dental calculus, or mineralized plaque, represents a record of ancient biomolecules and food residues. Recently, ancient metagenomics made it possible to unlock the wealth of microbial and dietary information of dental calculus to reconstruct oral ...

Dental calculus evidence of Taï Forest Chimpanzee plant consumption and life history transitions [PDF]

open access: gold, 2015
Dental calculus (calcified dental plaque) is a source of multiple types of data on life history. Recent research has targeted the plant microremains preserved in this mineralised deposit as a source of dietary and health information for recent and past ...

Dental calculus: A repository of bioinformation indicating diseases and human evolution

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
Dental calculus has long been considered as a vital contributing factor of periodontal diseases. Our review focuses on the role of dental calculus as a repository and discusses the bioinformation recently reported to be concealed in dental calculus from ...

Dental Calculus Stimulates Interleukin-1β Secretion by Activating NLRP3 Inflammasome in Human and Mouse Phagocytes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Dental calculus is a mineralized deposit associated with periodontitis. The bacterial components contained in dental calculus can be recognized by host immune sensors, such as Toll-like receptors (TLRs), and induce transcription of proinflammatory ...
