Clinical name: Pulp calcification
Pulp calcifications may appear as punctate calcifications, irregular, roughly spherical mineralized masses in any part of the pulp. It may occur isolated or associated to calcifications elsewhere such as the carotid arteries and kidneys. The diagnosis pulp calcifications can be established using radiological studies.

Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Pulp stones is seen. Most people with this trait have none of those conditions, and a gene on this list says nothing about anyone's own genome.

How often is among people with one of the gene's conditions, the most often across them, as the Human Phenotype Ontology records it. These pages describe traits and the research behind them; they are not a diagnosis, and a doctor or genetic counsellor is the person to ask about symptoms.
