Immunochemical Studies on Dental Calculus

open access: yesJOURNAL OF DENTAL HEALTH, 1970
It has already been pointed out that dental calculus is one of major factors in periodontal disease. Recent finding by fluorescent antibody technique is suggesting the immunologic response in the inflamed gingiva.It leads to the hypothesis that calculus may play an important role in periodontal tissues as antigen.Rabbits were immunized with calculus ...
