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,

BMC Oral Health, 2020 Background While hand and ultrasonic scalers are the primary tools used for the removal of dental calculus in periodontal treatment, many studies have shown that they also damage the enamel surface.

Fluorescence spectroscopy of dental calculus
Journal of Periodontal Research, 2004 Background: Correct diagnosis of the presence and extent of subgingival calculus is important for periodontal treatment planning and reassessment after periodontal therapy. Traditional tactile methods often lack sensitivity. The present investigation shall contribute to understanding the fundamental fluorescence properties that may be useful for ...

Bioengineering, 2023 Dental caries on the crown’s surface is caused by the interaction of bacteria and carbohydrates, which then gradually alter the tooth’s structure. In addition, calculus is the root of periodontal disease.

Investigation of in vitro Mineral Forming Bacterial Isolates from Subgingival Calculus
Archives of Clinical and Experimental Surgery, 2014 The mechanism that dictates the formation of dental calculus, an important component of periodontal health, has yet to be sufficiently explained. The effect of bacterial flora on dental calculus formation is important for periodontal status.

An unusual presentation of dental calculus
Journal of Indian Society of Periodontology, 2019 Calculus is a mineralized bacterial plaque that is formed on natural teeth surfaces where there is constant supply of saliva. Dental calculus is commonly seen over the buccal surfaces of maxillary molars and lingual surfaces of mandibular anterior teeth where the salivary duct opens into the oral cavity.

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 Dental calculus has proven to contain a wealth of information on the dietary habits of past populations. These insights have, to a large extent, been obtained by the extraction and identification of starch granules contained within the mineralised dental

Journal of Dental Sciences, 2015 Background/purpose: Carbonic anhydrase (CA) VI is a unique salivary isoenzyme that regulates the pH in the oral environment. Its increased levels result in a more-alkaline saliva, hence it was hypothesized to contribute to dental calculus formation ...
