Investigation of in vitro Mineral Forming Bacterial Isolates from Subgingival Calculus

open access: yesArchives 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.

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

open access: yesBioengineering, 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.

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

open access: yesJournal 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

open access: yesFrontiers 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
