The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of caries-related bacterium or bacterial component on dental pulp. Especially, it was focused on alarmin, molecule led to inflammation, and investigated the production and release of alarmin from dental pulp stimulated with caries-related bacterium. Consequently, the production and release of alarmin ware observed in pulpitis, and these results indicated that alarmin may be involved in the progression of pulpitis.
