SRIVASTAVA, Swati. Current and future perspectives for dentin-pulp tissue engineering - an update. S. Afr. dent. j. [online]. 2019, vol.74, n.3, pp.110-114. ISSN 0375-1562. http://dx.doi.org/10.17159/2519-0105/2019/v74no3a1.
The isolation of dental pulp stem cells in 2000 set the scene enabling tissue engineering to generate dental pulp, leading to the possibility of further root development and the reinforcement of dentinal walls by deposition of hard tissues. These developments would be of clinical interest for dentists in endodontics, in which exciting areas of endodontic research are emerging. In roots having thin dentinal walls, there is a risk of fracture when mechanical preparation of the root canal is undertaken. The innovative option of regenerative endodontic procedures could prove to be an effective approach in these cases. This review is an attempt to update on the current trends.
