Histological Evaluation of Pulpal Response and Dentin Bridge Formation After Direct Pulp Capping Using Recombinant Amelogenin and Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA).
Curēus 2024 Februrary
The purpose of the study was to compare and histologically investigate pulpal response and dentin bridge formation after direct pulp capping using recombinant amelogenin and mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA). Recombinant amelogenin protein and MTA were used as pulp capping materials in 120 teeth from eight mongrel dogs. Dogs were sacrificed at two different evaluation times. Regenerative changes were evaluated histologically. At two weeks, in contrast to the MTA group, most of the amelogenin group showed moderately formed hard tissue formation and the pulp tissue was completely filling the entire pulp chamber. These results were statistically significant. At two months, all the samples of the amelogenin group showed complete dentin bridge formation and the pulp chamber was filled entirely with tissue-mimicking the authentic pulp in all the specimens of the amelogenin group. These results were statistically significant. In conclusion, direct pulp capping by recombinant amelogenin protein resulted in significantly better regeneration of the dentin-pulp complex than MTA.
