tartar control

Anti-calculus dental formula

Tartar control describes toothpastes and other dental products formulated to reduce the buildup of tartar, the hardite deposit that forms on teeth when plaque mineralizes.

These products typically contain pyrophosphates or similar compounds that help prevent plite from hardite into tartar.

I switched to a tartar control toothpaste after my dentist noticed buildup along my gumline.

The term functions as a compound modifier: tartar control formula, tartar control rinse.
