Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The invention relates to the application of a composition containing recombinant amelogenin and propylene glycol alginate (“PGA”) on to cut dentin tubules followed by installation of a definitive restorative in a single visit.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A same day single visit method for capping a damaged tooth, comprising: applying a treatment composition comprising amelogenin and propylene glycol alginate (“PGA”) to a surface of exposed pulp of the damaged tooth; then capping the damaged tooth by applying a permanent dental restorative on top of the treatment composition present on the exposed pulp, wherein the treatment composition comprises 30 mg amelogenin protein powder in mixture with 1 ml of a combination of propylene glycol alginate and a saline matrix. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the amelogenin comprises an amino acid sequence that is at least 95% identical to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2, 4 or 6 or a sequence that has at least 95% sequence identity to SEQ ID NOS: 2, 4 or 6 or a fragment thereof having at least 30 contiguous amino acid residues. 3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the treatment composition consists essentially of recombinant human amelogenin, the saline and the propylene glycol alginate. 4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the treatment composition further comprises a remineralization agent selected from the group consisting of a material providing calcium ions, a material providing phosphorous ions, and a material providing fluoride ions. 5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the subject is suffering from amelogenesis imperfecta.
