Dental calculus is not equivalent to bone collagen for isotope analysis: a comparison between carbon and nitrogen stable isotope analysis of bulk dental calculus, bone and dentine collagen from same individuals from the Medieval site of El Raval (Alicante, Spain). [PDF]

, 2014
Palaeodietary reconstruction using the carbon and nitrogen isotope values of bone and dentine collagen is a well-established method and the biochemical processes involved are well known.

The effectiveness of an actuator-driven pulsed water jet for the removal of artificial dental calculus: a preliminary study

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.

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.

Correlation between parodontal indexes and orthodontic retainers: prospective study in a group of 16 patients [PDF]

, 2017
Purpose. Fixed retainers are used to stabilize dental elements after orthodontic treatment. Being it a permanent treatment, it is necessary to instruct patients about a constant and continuous monitoring of their periodontal conditions and a correct oral

Quantitative Evaluation of Caries and Calculus with Ultrahigh-Resolution Optical Coherence Tomography

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.

Antibacterial prophylaxis of surgical site infections in oral surgery: not only and not always systemic antibiotics [PDF]

, 2015
Antibacterial prophylaxis is a set of treatment measures, including antibiotic prophylaxis, under surgeon’s responsibility. If local measures are always to be applied, antibiotic prophylaxis administration needs a careful case selection in order to avoid

Are increased salivary carbonic anhydrase VI levels related to the amount of supragingival dental calculus formation and clinical periodontal scores?

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 ...

Investigating Biases Associated With Dietary Starch Incorporation and Retention With an Oral Biofilm Model

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
