Odontoblasts produce most of the extracellular matrix (ECM) components found in dentin
and implicated in dentin mineralization. Major differences in the pulp ECM explain why pulp …

Understanding outcomes of the interaction between a dental material and tooth tissue is
important in terms not only of biocompatibilty but also of the potential for the material to …

The objective of this study was to investigate the use of alginate hydrogels to present either
exogenous or endogenous transforming growth factor (TGF)-g 1 to the dentin-pulp complex …

The long-term outcome of replanted avulsed permanent teeth is frequently compromised by
lack of revascularization, resulting in pulp necrosis. The purpose of this study was to …

Rapid progress has been made in the last decade related to stem cell-mediated pulp–dentin
regeneration, from characterization of dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) to the first-ever …

Based on the concept of tissue engineering (Cells—Scaffold—Bioactive molecules),
regenerative endodontics appeared as a new notion for dental endodontic treatment. Its …

Multipotency is a defining characteristic of post-natal stem cells. The human dental pulp
contains a small subpopulation of stem cells that exhibit multipotency, as demonstrated by …

The aim was to compare the use of different cell–material contact test methods with two
different biological systems (cell line and tooth slice cultures) for cytotoxicity assessment of …

Treatment of avulsed young permanent teeth aims to revascularize the dental pulp. The
study of therapeutic strategies for avulsed teeth has been hindered by the scarcity of …

Efforts to heal damaged pulp tissue through tissue engineering have produced positive
results in pilot trials. However, the differentiation between real regeneration and mere repair …
