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