Tartar, which your dentist calls calculus, is a product of the minerals and plaque in your saliva.
Stone is the main cause of gum diseases such as gingivitis and periodontitis.

     The stone creates the biggest problem, especially when it forms below the gum line.
The stone is chalky and hard; it is difficult to clean. Part of regular dental checkups includes cleaning your teeth and calculus.
This cleaning process is done by scraping the teeth with tools called gratory and curette, especially for the stones below the gum line,
The procedure is uncomfortable and makes your gums bleed. Another method is to use a vibrator to help clear the stones.
