Proteomic evidence of dietary sources in ancient dental calculus. [PDF]
Archaeological dental calculus has emerged as a rich source of ancient biomolecules, including proteins. Previous analyses of proteins extracted from ancient dental calculus revealed the presence of the dietary milk protein β-lactoglobulin, providing ...

Differential preservation of endogenous human and microbial DNA in dental calculus and dentin [PDF]
Dental calculus (calcified dental plaque) is prevalent in archaeological skeletal collections and is a rich source of oral microbiome and host-derived ancient biomolecules.

Dental calculus detection using the VistaCam [PDF]
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.

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,

The Sustainability of Dental Calculus for Archaeological Research [PDF]
Dental calculus is a mineralized plaque biofilm formed by microbiota of the oral microbiome. Until recently, the vast research potential of dental calculus for archaeological study was not fully appreciated and it was often discarded.

Metagenomic analysis of dental calculus in ancient Egyptian baboons [PDF]
Dental calculus, or mineralized plaque, represents a record of ancient biomolecules and food residues. Recently, ancient metagenomics made it possible to unlock the wealth of microbial and dietary information of dental calculus to reconstruct oral ...
