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 ...

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

Multi-omic detection of Mycobacterium leprae in archaeological human dental calculus

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Biological Sciences, 2020
Mineralized dental plaque (calculus) has proven to be an excellent source of ancient biomolecules. Here we present a Mycobacterium leprae genome (6.6-fold), the causative agent of leprosy, recovered via shotgun sequencing of sixteenth-century human ...

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.

Dental Calculus as a Tool to Study the Evolution of the Mammalian Oral Microbiome

open access: yesMolecular biology and evolution, 2020
Dental calculus, the calcified form of the mammalian oral microbial plaque biofilm, is a rich source of oral microbiome, host, and dietary biomolecules and is well preserved in museum and archaeological specimens. Despite its wide presence in mammals, to

Effects of stabilized stannous fluoride dentifrice on dental calculus, dental plaque, gingivitis, halitosis and stain: A systematic review

open access: yesHeliyon, 2019
Objectives: The aim of the present systematic review was to examine the scientific evidence for the efficacy of stabilized stannous fluoride (SnF2) dentifrice in relation to dental calculus, dental plaque, gingivitis, halitosis and staining.
