A vital and healthy dental pulp (DP) is required for teeth to remain functional throughout a
lifespan. Appreciating its value for the tooth, the regeneration of the DP is a highly …

The interrelations between inflammation and regeneration are of particular significance
within the dental pulp tissue inextensible environment. Recent data have demonstrated the …

Considerable focus on the biocompatibility of dental materials over the last three decades
has provided a platform for a wealth of studies on the cellular and molecular responses of …

The repair of dental pulp by direct capping with calcium hydroxide or by implantation of
bioactive extracellular matrix (ECM) molecules implies a cascade of four steps: a moderate …

OBJECTIVES: Dental tissue disease and trauma provides an excellent model for the
interaction between tissue defence and regenerative processes and has application to many …

In dentistry, the maintenance of a vital dental pulp is of paramount importance because teeth
devitalized by root canal treatment may become more brittle and prone to structural failure …

Dental tissue infection results in immune and inflammatory responses mediated by
molecular and cellular events that, if unchecked, result in tissue breakdown. The tooth, like …

The importance of inflammation has been underestimated in pulpal healing, and in the past,
it has been considered only as an undesirable effect. Associated with moderate …

Introduction The role of complement, especially through the C5a fragment, is well-known for
the initiation of inflammation. Its involvement in regeneration has been shown more recently …

This is the first in a series of four papers aimed at understanding human pulpal responses to
tissue injury, cavity preparation and restorative events. This article provides an insight into …
