Decision-making for dental pulp exposure: a survey in graduate programs at Brazilian universities
Clinical decision-making tends to be based on what clinicians have been taught during undergraduate and graduate programs. The aim of the present study was to assess the clinical approach and to identify the factors that influence the decision-making for

Dental Pulp Infarction in Female Rats Following Inhalation Exposure to 2-Butoxyethanol [PDF]
Female Fischer 344 (F344)/N rats (10 per exposure group) were exposed to 2-butoxyethanol (BE) vapors (0, 31, 62.5, 125, 250, or 500 ppm 6 h/d, 5 d/wk, for 13 weeks) to characterize its prechronic toxicity. Dental lesions consisting of bilateral multifocal dental pulp thrombosis, pulp infarction, and odontoblast infarction were noted in the maxillary ...

Innovative Pulp Preservation: The Use of Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) and Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) in Treating Dental Pulp Exposure. [PDF]
The dental pulp, essential for tooth vitality, often becomes inflamed when exposed due to caries, fractures, or dislodged restorations. Untreated inflammation can lead to pulpal death, necessitating vital pulp therapies (VPTs) such as pulp capping and pulpotomy. Recent trends favor partial caries removal to avoid overtreatment and preserve pulp health.

The Histlogical Comparison of Pulp Disease between Dental Trauma and Pulp Exposure
The aim of this study was to investigate the histological changes of dental pulp following luxation of tooth, and compared with that of pulp exposure mechanically. Upper left first molar of twenty male, 5 weeks age, Wister rats were used for this study; ten were used for trauma group by luxation and ten for mechanically expose group.

MicroRNA Signatures in Dental Pulp Stem Cells Following Nicotine Exposure
Background and Objectives: Nicotine is the most well-studied toxic substance in cigarette smoke and e-cigarette vape. However, smoke and vape are composed of other components that have a negative impact on health. The objective of this study is to investigate whether nicotine has a distinctive impact on molecular mechanisms in stem cells.
