Tartar is also known as plaque and is called dental calculus when it calcifies. It is a layer of sticky film that covers the enamel of your teeth. Tartar is formed when the bacteria present mixes with the proteins and other food particles left in the mouth.

Answer: This may help you

Explanation:

The tartar formation process includes the formation of calcium phosphate in your mouth. This is a compound created by the combination of calcium in your saliva, acids given off by bacteria and oxygen. Tartar control toothpastes contain a chemical called sodium pyrophosphate or sodium hexametaphosphate.
