Disclosing the physiology of pulp tissue for vital pulp therapy [PDF]
AbstractThe discovery that dentine is a reservoir of bioactive molecules that can be recruited on demand has attracted efforts to develop new protocols and materials for vital pulp therapy (VPT). The noncollagenous proteins (NCPs) present in the dentine extracellular matrix (ECM) include growth factors (TGF‐β1, BMP‐7, FGF‐2, IGF‐1 and IGF‐2, NGF and ...
