Dental calculus - oral health, forensic studies and archaeology: a review
Dental calculus is recognised as a secondary aetiological factor in periodontal disease, and being a prominent plaque retentive factor, it is routinely removed by the dental team to maintain oral health.

Dental Calculus Arrest of Dental Caries [PDF]
An inverse relationship between dental calculus mineralization and dental caries demineralization on teeth has been noted in some studies. Dental calculus may even form superficial layers over existing dental caries and arrest their progression, but this phenomenon has been only rarely documented and infrequently considered in the field of Cariology ...

Dental calculus microbiome correlates with dietary intake.
BACKGROUND Dental calculus is the result of dental plaque mineralization, originating from the tooth-associated bacterial biofilm. Recent evidence revealed that the dental calculus microbiome has a more complex composition than previously considered ...

Dental Calculus Stimulates Interleukin-1β Secretion by Activating NLRP3 Inflammasome in Human and Mouse Phagocytes. [PDF]
Dental calculus is a mineralized deposit associated with periodontitis. The bacterial components contained in dental calculus can be recognized by host immune sensors, such as Toll-like receptors (TLRs), and induce transcription of proinflammatory ...
