Dental calculus detection using the VistaCam [PDF]
Clinical and Experimental Dental Research, 2016 AbstractThe VistaCam® intra‐oral camera system (Dürr Dental, Bietigheim‐Bissingen, Germany) is a fluorescence system using light emitting diodes that produce a 405‐nm violet light. This wavelength has potential application for detection of dental calculus based on red emissions from porphyrin molecules.

A Comprehensive Review on Dental Calculus [PDF]
Journal of Health Sciences & Research, 2016 ABSTRACT Dental calculus is a hard deposit that is formed by calcification of dental plaque primarily composed of calcium phosphate mineral salts which is deposited on natural teeth and restorations and is covered by a layer of unmineralized plaque. These hard deposits may form coronal to or apical to the gingival margin, hence named accordingly as ...

Dental Calculus: A Bacterial Hub [PDF]
Journal of Dental Problems and Solutions, 2016 The Surgeon General's report on oral health highlights the relationship between oral and overall health, emphasizing that oral health involves more than dentition [1]. Mouth acts as a window to lot of systemic diseases and serves as a port of entry of the various infections that can alter and affect the immune status of the person.

Zinc incorporation in human dental calculus [PDF]
Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, 2001 We present here the first study of the local environment of zinc ions in biological calcium phosphates. It was suggested from in vitro studies that zinc inhibits the formation of hydroxyapatite and promotes the formation of more soluble phases, like tricalcium phosphate. Several mechanisms of zinc - calcium phosphate interaction were proposed, yielding

Salivary proteomic profile of dogs with and without dental calculus
BMC Veterinary Research, 2020 Background Dogs’ saliva is a complex mixture of inorganic and organic constituents, rich in proteins. Therefore, knowing the saliva composition of these animals is extremely important to identify the presence of proteins that may be involved in ...

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

The Sustainability of Dental Calculus for Archaeological Research [PDF]
, 2017 Dental calculus is a mineralized plaque biofilm formed by microbiota of the oral microbiome. Until recently, the vast research potential of dental calculus for archaeological study was not fully appreciated and it was often discarded.
