Abstract
Cell homing and stem cell transplantation offers promising approaches for pulp regeneration. This study investigated the efficacy of an injectable concentrated growth factor gel for dental pulp regeneration in beagles. Six groups of beagle teeth were studied: Blank control group, CGF group, Collagen sponge group, CGF + Collagen sponge group, Dental pulp stem cells group, CGF + Dental pulp stem cells group. Specimens were examined by CBCT and histological analysis. No obvious change was identified in the periapical condition. Fewest inflammatory cells were found in the CGF + CS group. Odontoblast-like cells and dentin-like tissue were identified in the root canals of experimental groups, and the thickness of dentin-like tissue was positively correlated with the number of odontoblast-like cells. CD31-positive cells appeared in root canals containing pulp-like tissue. Injectable concentrated growth factor (CGF) can induce in situ pulp-dentin complex regeneration either on its own or in combination with collagen sponge and dental pulp stem cells.
期刊介绍:
The Australian Endodontic Journal provides a forum for communication in the different fields that encompass endodontics for all specialists and dentists with an interest in the morphology, physiology, and pathology of the human tooth, in particular the dental pulp, root and peri-radicular tissues.
The Journal features regular clinical updates, research reports and case reports from authors worldwide, and also publishes meeting abstracts, society news and historical endodontic glimpses.
The Australian Endodontic Journal is a publication for dentists in general and specialist practice devoted solely to endodontics. It aims to promote communication in the different fields that encompass endodontics for those dentists who have a special interest in endodontics.
