INTRODUCTION Pulp-capping procedures are routinely performed. The control of infection and biocompatibility of the pulp-capping materials are important factors in determining the treatment outcome. Calcium hydroxide has been considered the gold standard for this procedure. However, previous reports have reported the causes of failures with the use of calcium hydroxide. Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) has proved to be effective in the process of pulp capping. METHODS Human dental pulp stromal… CONTINUE READING
