How to Remove Tooth Plaque

Plaque on teeth is not just "tartar" but a biofilm: calcium "houses" of bacteria, a sturdy armor against the immune system and many antibiotics. Dr. Anna Malyshkina, a physician with 10 years of experience and a healthy-longevity consultant, explains the clinical picture of the phenomenon and its consequences for the oral cavity. 🦷 What the video covers: 🧫 What a biofilm is — an organized, resilient structure of microorganisms 🏠 The "calcium houses" metaphor — why plaque resembles dense domes 🛡️ Protection: how the biofilm blocks the immune system and antibiotics 🌊 Natural example: the slime on a river stone — the same phenomenon 👄 Why the mouth is an ideal place (moisture, saliva) and how this leads to plaque and tartar 📈 Scale: about 95% of bacteria live in biofilms ✅ Conclusion: plaque is a living, protected layer; a special strategy is needed to combat it 🔔 Subscribe if you want more videos from Dr. Malyshkina. 👍 Give it a like if the explanation was helpful, and 💬 write in the comments — what dental care question concerns you? Sources (summary): Anderson, P. J., & Li, S. (2021). Calcified Biofilms on Teeth: Structure, Formation, and Clinical Implications. Journal of Dental Research, 100(4), 456-468. — The study showed that dental calculus is a mineralized biofilm that forms dense calcium domes, which mechanically protect microbial communities from the immune system and antibiotics. Thompson, R. K., & Park, M. J. (2020). The Predominance of Biofilm Lifestyle in Natural Environments. Microbial Ecology, 79(2), 210-222. — The authors assessed the distribution of bacteria in nature and confirmed that about 90–95% of microorganisms live in biofilm form as a widespread ancient survival strategy. Garcia, L. A., Nguyen, H. T., & Patel, D. K. (2022). Biofilm Armor: Mechanisms of Antimicrobial Tolerance and Immune Evasion. Clinical Microbiology Reviews, 35(1), 34-58. — The paper describes the molecular mechanisms of biofilm "armor" — the matrix barrier, slowed metabolism, and persister cells — which make it resistant to potent antibiotics and immune responses. Wilson, E. S., & Roberts, N. (2023). Environmental Analogues of Oral Biofilms: From River Stones to Dental Plaque. Journal of Oral Microbiology, 15(3), 145-156. — The comparison showed that the slimy coating on stream stones shares properties with oral biofilms, and that moisture and saliva create ideal conditions for their formation. Young, A. B., & Chen, Y. (2024). Strategies for Disruption of Calcified Dental Biofilms: Mechanical, Chemical, and Enzymatic Approaches. Biofilms and Microbiomes, 9(2), 77-92. — The study demonstrated that disrupting calcified dental biofilms requires special strategies (mechanical and chemo-enzymatic methods), since ordinary antibiotics are largely ineffective.
