Calculus2 The scientific term for tartar, which is the accumulation of calcified substance that adheres to the teeth. Calculus is microscopically porous, and provides a multitude of hiding places for the bacteria that cause gum disease. It should be removed on a schedule chosen specifically for the individual needs of each patient. It is the major target of your "cleanings".
