Regeneración de la pulpa dental. Una revisión de la literatura

The aim of this paper is the literature review since January 2013 until December 2017 in order to fi nd the current approach of tissue engineering to regenerate dental pulp. A bibliographic review was made on December 2017 in the PubMed search engine using the descriptors: dental regeneration, pulp regeneration and dental pulp regeneration. The trend of the last fi ve years is mainly directed to the study of stem cells and few of these studies have focused on signaling molecules. It was concluded that the DPSC were the most used, scant scaff olding studies used collagen, a blood clot, platelet-rich plasma, and a variety of signaling molecules where the use of dentine fragments in their diff erent forms prevails; a similar number of in vivo and in vitro studies were used.
