The present invention relates to an aqueous dental glass ionomer composition for use in the treatment of cavitated carious lesions, which composition comprises a water-soluble, polymerizable polymer comprising acidic groups, which is reactive with the particulate glass in a cement reaction, whereby the polymerizable polymer has a polymer backbone and pendant groups having one or more polymerizable carbon-carbon double bonds. The dental glass ionomer composition is used as a permanent direct restoration.

A natural and sustainable material is derived from the nut of the tagua palm tree that may be fashioned into devices for humans and animals. A pulverized and reconstituted material is disclosed herein that is also treated with a low temperature atmospheric plasma treatment. In an embodiment, a biocompatible carrier gas is ionized to form a biocompatible atmospheric plasma stream. Material, such as nano-scale powdered hydroxyapatite, is introduced into the plasma stream, which is then applied to the natural nut material.

The present invention relates to a composition for a single-paste type hydraulic endodontic filling material comprising dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). According to one aspect of the invention, there is provided a single-paste type hydraulic endodontic filling composition, comprising a calcium silicate component and DMSO.

Provided is a dental pretreatment material for dental tissue regeneration by use of dental pulp stem cells, particularly a dental pretreatment material effectively enabling dental tissue regeneration even by use of dental pulp stem cells of middle-aged or older individuals. The dental pretreatment material is characterized by comprising a serine protease, specifically trypsin. The dental pretreatment material comprising trypsin is used as an injection into a root canal before a root canal filling material comprising dental pulp stem cells and an extracellular matrix is inserted into the root canal as an attempt to regenerate a dental pulp and a dentin. The root canal filling material includes an ALK5 inhibitor, a CCR3 antagonist, or a CCL11 neutralizing antibody.

The present invention provides a composition for optical three-dimensional modeling that offers desirable shape accuracy in optical three-dimensional modeling, and that provides desirable transparency and mechanical characteristics upon being cured. The present invention relates to a composition for optical three-dimensional modeling comprising a polymerizable monomer (a), an ultraviolet-absorbing inorganic particle (b), and a photopolymerization initiator (c).
