| calculus |
Calculus is the hard stone like deposit on teeth formed by plaque that has calcified. Calculus is usually strongly attached to the teeth and must be removed by an instrument. It can not be just brushed off the teeth. Subgingival calculus (below the gums) is usually darker and more adherant to the tooth than the creamy yellow supragingival calculus.
