Removal of dental calculus (tartar):
Dental calculus, (called also tartar) a hard, stonelike concretion, that develops on the teeth or dental prostheses through calcification of dental plaque; it begins as a yellowish film of calcium phosphate and carbonate, food particles, and other organic matter that is deposited on the teeth by the saliva. It should be removed regularly by a dentist or dental hygienist; if neglected, it can cause bacteria to lodge between the gums and the teeth, causing gum infection, dental caries, loosening of the teeth, and other disorders. Calculus builds above and below the gum line and can only be removed with special dental instruments.
Removal of teeth plaque:
Dental plaque, a dense, nonmineralized, highly organized biofilm of microbes, organic and inorganic material derived from the saliva, gingival crevicular fluid, and bacterial byproducts. It plays an important etiologic role in the development of dental caries and periodontal and gingival diseases; calcified plaque forms dental calculus! Prophylaxis procedure (covered by dental insurance) include teeth polishing with prophylaxis paste.
