Comparative study of pulpal response following direct pulp capping using synthesized fluorapatite and hydroxyapatite nanoparticles. This study aimed to investigate and compare the histological response of rabbit dental pulp after direct pulp capping with 3 different materials: mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), nanoparticles of fluorapatite (Nano-FA), and nanoparticles of hydroxyapatite (Nano-HA site, but the MTA showed only granulation tissues. Plus, dilated blood vessels appeared in the Nano-FA group. After 6 weeks, MTA and Nano-FA groups showed pulp fibrosis at the operating site with the persistence of dilated blood vessels with Nano-FA. The nano-HA group showed dentin bridge formation at the operating site. MTA and Nano-HA could be considered favorable materials for direct pulp capping

Histological evaluation of the regenerative potential of a novel photocrosslinkable gelatin-treated dentin matrix hydrogel in direct pulp capping: an animal study. To assess histologically the success of the pulp capping approach performed in traumatically exposed dogs' teeth using a novel injectable gelatin-treated dentin matrix light cured hydrogel (LCG-TDM) compared with LCG, MTA and TheraCal LC. Sixty-four dogs' teeth were divided into two groups (each including 32 teeth) based on the post-treatment evaluation period: group I: 2 weeks and group II: 8 weeks. Each group was further subdivided according to the pulp capping material into four subgroups (n = 8), with subgroup A (light-cured gelatin hydrogel) as the control subgroup, subgroup B (LCG-TDM), subgroup C (TheraCal LC

Deep carious lesions in permanent teeth (90) were randomly assigned to three indirect pulp difference in tooth sensitivity among the three indirect pulp capping protocols nor in success rates among the restorative protocols after 1 year of follow-up (p>0.1).The respective success rates, as defined by the tooth remaining vital, after 1 year were: 96.2% for TheraCal LC, 100% for Dycal, and 100% for no liner. After 12-month evaluation, the success rate of indirect pulp capping therapy on permanent

Outcome of novel pulp capping modalities after full pulpotomy in teeth diagnosed with irreversible pulpitis: A prospective randomized clinical trial. The study aimed to compare and evaluate the effect of biodentine (BD) alone, BD along with Lyophilised freeze dried platelet rich concentrate (LPC + BD), and BD along with low-level laser therapy (BD + LLLT) after pulpotomy in mature permanent molars with irreversible pulpitis. The study was designed as a randomized, pragmatic, parallel, double-blinded clinical trial registered under the Clinical Trial Registry-India (CTRI/2020/02/023245). 120 permanent molars fulfilling the inclusion and exclusion criteria with symptoms of irreversible pulpitis were randomized after performing pulpotomy into three pulp capping groups: Group 1, BD; Group 2

Clinical and patient-level predictors of procedure and tooth survival after direct pulp capping. Historical reports of unpredictable outcomes associated with vital pulpal therapies, particularly direct pulp capping (DPC), have contributed to clinicians' skepticism of the procedure. Contemporary reports highlight more predictable outcomes of vital pulpal therapies, inclusive of DPC

Reparative dentin formation following dental pulp capping is mediated by TNFR1 in vivo. TNF-α is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that promotes biomineralization in vitro in dental pulp cells. However, the role of TNF-α-TNFR1 signaling in reparative dentin formation and related inflammatory pathways is not known. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the role of the TNF-α-TNFR1 axis in dental pulp repair following pulp capping in vivo. Dental pulp repair response of genetically deficient tumor necrosis factor-α receptor-1 mice (TNFR1; n=20) was compared with that of C57Bl6 mice (WT; n=20). Pulp capping was performed with MTA on the mandibular first molars of mice. After 7 and 70 days, tissues were collected and stained with hematoxylin and eosin (HE) for histopathological

Efficacy of methylene blue and curcumin mediated antimicrobial photodynamic therapy in the treatment of indirect pulp capping in permanent molar teeth. This study aimed to evaluate the adhesive bond strength and antibacterial efficacy of methylene blue (MB)-mediated antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) and curcumin (CUR)-mediated aPDT versus the conventional disinfectants , such as chlorhexidine gluconate (CHX) gel and sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), for indirect pulp capping (IPC) treatment of permanent molars. One Hundred grossly carious human permanent molars were collected through non-traumatic extraction. All specimens were embedded in polyvinyl cross-sections to the cemento-enamel junction. The cavity preparation was conducted by grinding the samples using silicon carbide discs

Biodegradation of an injectable treated dentin matrix hydrogel as a novel pulp capping agent for dentin regeneration. A novel injectable mixture termed treated dentin matrix hydrogel (TDMH) has been introduced for restoring dentin defect in DPC. However, no study evaluated its physiological biodegradation. Therefore, the present study aimed to assess scaffold homogeneity, mechanical properties and biodegradability in vitro and in vivo and the regenerated dentin induced by TDMH as a novel pulp capping agent in human permanent teeth. Three TDMH discs were weighted, and dry/wet ratios were calculated in four slices from each disc to evaluate homogeneity. Hydrogel discs were also analyzed in triplicate to measure the compressive strength using a universal testing machine. The in vitro degradation behavior

Outcome of Direct Pulp Capping Using Calcium Hydroxide: A Long-term Retrospective Study. This retrospective study evaluated the long-term outcome of direct pulp capping in mature teeth using specific case selection and treatment procedures. Teeth with pulp exposure due to advanced caries and clinical diagnosis of reversible pulpitis were treated by direct pulp capping. Treatments were conducted evaluated. In general, 225 teeth from 148 patients were available for follow-up examination in at least one of the evaluated periods. The success rate of the direct pulp capping procedure was 100%, 95%, 95%, 86%, and 89% at 1-, 5-, 10-, 20-, and 35-year follow-up examination, respectively. The main variable significantly affecting the treatment outcome in all follow-up periods was the quality/presence
