Plaque won't show as calcium until it has been in your arteries for decades and has calcified. It is a delayed indicator.

For anyone under 40, it's expected to have zero calcium. Even a measure of 1 or 2 when you're below 40 would be a bad sign.

Is there any way to get rid of the calcification? Experimental techniques?

Sure, surgery and several other risky and/or invasive treatments.

Or you could take statins and prevent it from becoming an issue in the first place.
