Human digested dentin matrix extract (DDME) may be used as a biomaterial for dentin regeneration, making it a possible option for vital pulp therapy like pulpotomy, according to an animal study ...
The key element in the mechanisms in question is tumor necrosis factor-α receptor-1, TNFR1, which becomes pro-inflammatory on binding to the cytokine TNF-α. In one of the situations analyzed, the ...
The long-term goal of dental treatment is to preserve teeth and prolong their function. In dental caries an efficient method is to cap the exposed dental pulp and conserve the pulp tissue with ...
A Harvard-led team is the first to demonstrate the ability to use low-power light to trigger stem cells inside the body to regenerate tissue, an advance they reported in Science Translational Medicine ...
Scientists have used low-power light to trigger stem cells inside the body to regenerate tissue. The research lays the foundation for a host of clinical applications in restorative dentistry and ...
Human dental pulp cells (hDPCs) are mesenchymal cells derived from the neural crest that exhibit plasticity and multipotency; these cells can generate reparative dentin to resist and repair injury due ...
