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 method for capping a damaged tooth having exposed dental pulp, comprising: applying a composition consisting of an aqueous vehicle, amelogenin and propylene glycol alginate (“PGA”) to a surface of the exposed dental pulp of the damaged tooth; wherein the amelogenin comprises an amino acid sequence that is identical to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2; wherein the amelogenin is present at a concentration of from 20 to 50 mg/cc in the aqueous vehicle; wherein the aqueous vehicle has a pH of 5.5; and applying a permanent dental restorative on top of the applied composition consisting of the aqueous vehicle, the amelogenin and the propylene glycol alginate; wherein applying the composition to the surface of the exposed dental pulp of the damaged tooth forms a tertiary dentine mineralized barrier that seals the exposed dental pulp inside the damaged tooth. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the composition contains from 20 to 40 mg of amelogenin per ml of the aqueous vehicle.
