摘要:
A dental pulp capping composition can comprise a particulate base material which is non-toxic, and capable of forming a structural capping matrix; and a particulate setting material which is non-toxic, water-soluble, biocompatible, and capable of setting the composition. Optional growth factors can also be introduced into the composition to facilitate dental tissue repair. A complimentary method of restoring damaged tooth features can comprise removing diseased and/or damaged portions of the tooth to expose a prepared tooth region. Water can be added to the dental pulp capping composition to form a workable coherent paste. The workable coherent paste can be introduced into the prepared tooth region. The workable coherent paste can then be shaped within the prepared tooth region and then set to form a rigid biomimetic structure within the prepared tooth region.
