Abstract:Vital pulp therapy is an expanding concept in pediatric dentistry today thanks to the potential exhibited by new biomaterials to stimulate regeneration of the pulp cells. Biocompatibility, bioactivity and dentin-like physical properties, as well as good handling, fast setting and the possibility to fill large cavities with a single material are some of the ideal properties of materials aimed to heal traumatized and inflamed dental pulps, given by a good balance of their chemical components.
