We assessed pulpal remineralisation of caries lesions in vitro. On the coronal aspect of human dentin discs (n = 70), artificial lesions [mineral loss #x0394;Z (mean ± SD) = 3,060 ± 604 vol% × µm] were induced, covered and pulpal surfaces exposed to pulpal fluid, remineralisation medium or water at pressures of 0, 1.47 or 2.94 kPa for 3 months. Mineral loss differences were assessed using transversal microradiography. No significant mineral gain occurred at 0 kPa and in samples exposed to water. At 1.47 and 2.94 kPa, pulpal and remineralisation fluid induced significant mineral gain [#x0394;#x0394;Z = 1,317 (25th/75th percentiles: 735/1,541) vol% × µm; p < 0.001]. Pressure and fluid composition determined pulpal remineralisation in vitro.Caries Res 2015;49:591-594 (Source: Caries Res...

ConclusionsAfter direct pulp capping, more than two thirds of the affected teeth did not undergo root canal treatment within three years. Although this study has the typical limits of a claims data analysis it can be concluded that direct pulp capping is an effective intervention to avoid root canal treatment and extraction in a general practice setting.This article is protected by copyright.
