THE JOURNAL OF PERIODONTOLOGY JANUARY , NINETEE N HUNDRE D SIXTY ON E Histologic and Histochemical Observations Regarding Early Calculus Formation in Children and Adults by SAMUE L TURESKY , GRET E RENSTRU P AND IRVING GLICKMAN , Boston, Massachusetts H E study of calculus formatio n received ne w impetus i n 195 7 whe n Man - del , Levy and Wasserman 1 reported their in vivo celluloid strip technique fo r collecting calculus. Since that time, the histological an d histochemical features of early calculus formation have been described in several reports. Ther e has been general agreement that calculus begins as a soft adherent bac terial-lade n plaque whic h undergoes progressive calcification. Observations and opinion s regardin g the chemical natur e o f the plaque, the bacterial components, an d the process of mineralization have been reviewed by Wa h Leung. 2 W e were interested in determining a) whether additional information regarding calculu s formatio n coul d be derive d fro m further microscopic an d histochemica l studies of calculus obtained i n humans and b) whether there were differences betwee n calculus formatio n i n children and adults.
