A Comparative Study of Different Traditional and Bioactive Indirect Pulp Capping Materials
Egypt72 participantsStarted 2024-02-01
Plain-language summary
The protection of the dentin-pulp complex consists of the application of one or more layers of specific material between the restorative material and dental tissue to avoid additional challenge to the pulp tissue caused by operative procedures, toxicity of restorative materials and bacteria penetration due to microleakage. Protection of the dentinpulp complex has also the function to recover pulp vitality.The materials that can be used for this purpose are varnishes,calcium hydroxide (CH)-based products, glass ionomer cements (GICs) and adhesive systems.The biological compatibility together with the sealing capabilities of dental materials is of paramount importance to avoid or limit pulp tissue irritation and dentinal hypersensitivity.
