Dental caries is a highly prevalent diet-related disease and is a major public health problem.
A goal of modern dentistry is to manage non-cavitated caries lesions non-invasively through …

Biomineralization is the process by which organisms form mineralized tissues with
hierarchical structures and excellent properties, including the bones and teeth in …

Rationally designed β-sheet-forming peptides that spontaneously form three-dimensional
fibrillar scaffolds in response to specific environmental triggers may potentially be used in …

Dental caries is one of the most common oral diseases in the world. This study was
tantamount to investigate the combinatory effects of an amelogenin-derived peptide (called …

Abstract Several small (< 25aa) peptides have been designed based on the sequence of the
dentin phosphoprotein, one of the major noncollagenous proteins thought to be involved in …

Abstract &lt; bold&gt; Purpose: &lt;/bold&gt; To compare the therapeutic effects of the resin
infiltration technique, self-assembling peptide (P11-4), and fluoride varnish application on …

Peptides containing 8 repeats of aspartate-serine-serine (8DSS) have been shown to
promote the nucleation of calcium phosphate from solution into human enamel. Here we …

The production of bone-, dentine-and enamel-like biomaterials for the engineering of
mineralized (hard) tissues is a high-priority in regenerative medicine and dentistry. An …

Bioactive scaffolds inducing cell adhesion, differentiation have been premise for optimal
formation of target tissue. Collagen has been employed as a tissue regenerative scaffold …

Dentin sialophosphoprotein has been implicated in the mineralization process based on the
defective dentin formation in Dspp null mice (Dspp−/−). Dspp is expressed at low levels in …
