Research Abstract |
TIMP1, which promotes the mineralization of odontoblast and activates undifferentiated mesenchymal cells via Wnt/β-catenin pathway in the pulp after cavity preparation, might be one of a critical molecule for tertiary dentinogenesis and one of a candidate for a new" biological" pulp capping materials.
