Ancient dental calculus preserves signatures of biofilm succession and interindividual variation independent of dental pathology. [PDF]

PNAS Nexus, 2022
Dental calculus preserves oral microbes, enabling comparative studies of the oral microbiome and health through time. However, small sample sizes and limited dental health metadata have hindered health-focused investigations to date. Here, we investigate

An unusual presentation of dental calculus.

J Indian Soc Periodontol, 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.

Dental Calculus Arrest of Dental Caries [PDF]

Journal of Oral Biology, 2016
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 ...
