Abstract
|
|
|
|
Teeth are made up of three hard tissues, enamel, dentin, and cementum. The dental pulp is the only non-mineralized connective tooth tissue that is surrounded by dentin. The dentin-pulp complex is able to respond to injury by producing hard tissue deposition. However, dentin is considered one of the most difficult tissues to regenerate because of its unique anatomic and physiologic nature. Recently, advances in understanding the applicability of bio-active dentin regenerating proteins are emerging with the development of biological-based therapies using bio-active materials. Dentin defects were regenerated by the deposition of tubular physiologic dentin after application of the bio-active protein in a beagle dog model. Therefore, the bio-active protein may be able to serve as a novel dentin regenerating material and improve symptoms of dentin hypersensitivity.
