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 ...

Patients with dental calculus have increased saliva and gingival crevicular fluid fetuin-A levels but no association with fetuin-A polymorphisms

open access: yesBrazilian Oral Research
: Fetuin-A is a potent inhibitor of calcium-phosphate precipitation and of the calcification process, therefore it can also be related with dental calculus.

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

Dental Calculus and its role in periodontal diseases

open access: yes, 2023
Dental Calculus has been associated with periodontal disease for a long time but its exact role in relation to the aetiology has always been debated amongst researchers. One of the reasons for this is the inability to differentiate whether it is calculus

Concomitant caries and calculus formation from in situ dentin caries model [v1; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/VnGedU]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2013
The aim of this study was to test the possibility of the concomitant formation of calculus deposits and caries from in situ dentin caries model for short time periods.

The mechanism of dental plaque and dental calculus formation by fibronectin. 4. Demonstration by fibronectin in the dental calculus.

open access: yesNihon Shishubyo Gakkai Kaishi (Journal of the Japanese Society of Periodontology), 1984
歯周病患者の縁上・縁下歯石における fibronectin の分布を免疫組織学的に検索したところ, 同物質は全症例において存在し, その分布様式は一般に糸状菌, 球菌などの菌体に一致して層板状や瀰漫性であった。また, fibronectin の存在部位は歯石の低石灰化とみなすべき部位と一致し, これは fibronectin が, Ca++やPO4---との反応性が強固で, octacalcium phasphote から hydroxyapatite への成長を著しく阻害するという実験的事実とよく符号する所見であった。

Investigation of the calculus microbiome in canines and felines using next-generation sequencing [PDF]

open access: yesKafkas Universitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Dergisi, 2018
The oral cavity of dogs and cats is colonized by hundreds of bacterial species. Here, we describe the bacterial composition in the dental calculus of dogs and cats.

Detection, removal and prevention of calculus: Literature Review

open access: yesSaudi Dental Journal, 2014
Dental plaque is considered to be a major etiological factor in the development of periodontal disease. Accordingly, the elimination of supra- and sub-gingival plaque and calculus is the cornerstone of periodontal therapy.
