Aragonite toothpaste for management of dental calculus: A double‐blinded randomized controlled clinical trial
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Clinical and Experimental Dental Research"
DOI: 10.1002/cre2.559
Abstract: Aragonite from animal origin such as cuttlefish bone powder is an abrasive with hardness properties ideal for calculus removal. The purpose of this randomized controlled trial was to test the efficacy of a cuttlebone‐derived aragonite… read more here.

Isotope analysis of human dental calculus δ13CO3 2−: Investigating a potential new proxy for sugar consumption

DOI: 10.1002/rcm.9286
Abstract: Rationale Dental calculus (mineralised dental plaque) is composed primarily of hydroxyapatite. We hypothesise that the carbonate component of dental calculus will reflect the isotopic composition of ingested simple carbohydrates. Therefore, dental calculus carbonates may be… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s12520-019-00962-w
Abstract: Dental calculus of a Roman woman (late first century–early second century CE), supposed to be the first historical evidence of coeliac disease (CD), was subjected to archaeobotanical investigations for reconstructing diet and phytotherapeutic practices. Light… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jas.2018.01.008
Abstract: Abstract Stable isotopic analyses (δ13C, δ15N) of dental calculus have been suggested as a proxy for the study of diet of ancient populations but questions about their validity have been raised. Here we test this… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/omi.12404
Abstract: BACKGROUND Dental calculus is the result of dental plaque mineralization, originating from the tooth-associated bacterial biofilm. Recent evidence revealed that the dental calculus microbiome has a more complex composition than previously considered, including an unstructured… read more here.
