Deposit on teeth (6)

Ross

I think it could be either:

tartar

plaque

(Other definitions for plaque that I've seen before include "Substance that forms on teeth encouraging bacteria" , "dental hygiene problem" , "Film on teeth that encourages caries" , "Memorial slab" , "Dental coating" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard, The Independent, The Star Tribune, the Universal, The Times, The Telegraph and the USA Today.
