The Role Of Calculus In Disease course for Dental Practice



This session will discuss the correlation between calculus and gingivitis.
Learning Objectives
By the end of this session you will be able to:
- Describe the origins and composition of calculus
- Identify the effects of calculus on periodontal health
- Define the relationship between calculus and gingivitis
Dental calculus is hardened dental plaque found in the majority of adults, either supra or sub-gingivally. In populations with good oral hygiene, minimal supragingival calculus is commonly found on tooth surfaces adjacent to the salivary ducts. Subgingival calculus formation in these patients appears to have little effect on attachment loss.
Before commencing this session you should have knowledge of:
- Dental Plaque
- Plaque as a causative factor for periodontal disease
