ental pulp tissue has the potential to regenerate dentin

in response to stimulations. Thus, stem cell therapy

has considerable a promise in pulp dentin regeneration.

The aim of this study is an in-vivo evaluation of pulp’s stem

cells capacity in pulp and dentin regeneration in dogs. To

isolate stem cells, one Iranian mixed-breed, 5-months dog

was used. The deciduous tooth was extracted. Pulp of

the tooth was isolated and exposed to type 1 collagenase

enzyme. Isolated cells were cultured on Dulbecco’s modified

Eagle’s medium (DMEM), supplemented with 10% fetal

bovine serum (FBS) and 1% antibiotic. Polyglycolate (PGA)

scaffolds were prepared and sanitized in 75% ethanol and

seeded with 4×104 cells. Twenty anterior and premolar

dogs’ teeth underwent shallow pulpotomy. Then all teeth

were divided to three groups. Twelve teeth transplanted

with seeded scaffolds and then cavities were filled with

MTA and Amalgam. Control groups consisted of four teeth

with unseeded PGA restored with MTA and Amalgam and

four teeth with only MTA and Amalgam. Eight weeks after

transplantation, samples were histologically analyzed. Mann

Whitney U test was used to compare inflammation, calcific

barrier and hyperemia and Chi-square test to compare

necrosis and Odontoblastic layer formation. There was no

significant difference between 3 groups except for calcified

barrier type between group 1 and 2, Dentin like matrix,

collagen fibers and small vessels observed in the cavity in

group using stem cells. The results of the study suggest the

possibility of pulp and dentin regeneration with stem cells in

damaged teeth.
