Dental calculus: A repository of bioinformation indicating diseases and human evolution [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022 Dental calculus has long been considered as a vital contributing factor of periodontal diseases. Our review focuses on the role of dental calculus as a repository and discusses the bioinformation recently reported to be concealed in dental calculus from ...

Auxiliary Diagnosis of Dental Calculus Based on Deep Learning and Image Enhancement by Bitewing Radiographs [PDF]
BioengineeringIn the field of dentistry, the presence of dental calculus is a commonly encountered issue. If not addressed promptly, it has the potential to lead to gum inflammation and eventual tooth loss.

Microbial differences between dental plaque and historic dental calculus are related to oral biofilm maturation stage [PDF]
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,

Dental calculus as a proxy for animal microbiomes. [PDF]
Quat Int, 2023 The field of dental calculus research has exploded in recent years, predominantly due to the multitude of studies related to human genomes and oral pathogens. Despite having a subset of these studies devoted to non-human primates, little progress has been made in the distribution of oral pathogens across domestic and wild animal populations.

Reactivity of aragonite with dicalcium phosphate facilitates removal of dental calculus [PDF]
Journal of Materials Science: Materials in MedicineDental calculus, a main contributor of periodontal diseases, is mostly composed of inorganic calcium phosphate species such as dicalcium phosphate, whitlockite, octa calcium phosphate, and hydroxyapatite.

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

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.

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.
