Odontoblasts are cells specialized in dentin matrix deposition and the first line of defense when the dentin–pulp complex is injured by pathological processes, such as dental caries and trauma. Natural compounds, such as flavonoids, could be useful to stimulate odontoblast activity and reparative dentinogenesis in vital pulp therapies, especially in immature permanent teeth. This study evaluated the effect of f...

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2010-10-01; Purpose: To evaluate the antibacterial effect of different Chlorhexidine (CHX) concentrations against Streptococcus mutans using the agar-diffusion method with and without human dentin discs placed between the bacteria and the test substances. Methods: For the direct application (agar-well technique), a...

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2008-08-01; Purpose: To evaluate the in vivo pulpal response after pulpotomy with different capping agents. In addition, the in vitro cytotoxic effects of both materials were assessed by applying them on culture of pulp cells. Methods: For the in vivo test, the coronal pulp of 28 teeth of dogs was mechanically remo...
