Dentin regeneration from human dental pulp cells

摘要

PPROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for inducing the differentiation of human tooth pulp cells into odontoblasts, by which dental disease patients such as dental caries patients can be treated, and to provide a method for regenerating a dentin. PSOLUTION: This method for inducing the differentiation of human tooth pulp cells into odontoblasts comprises three-dimensionally culturing at least one of separated human tooth pulp cells or cells capable of being differentiated into the human tooth pulp cells in a high density in the presence or absence of a carrier, while adding 1,25-(dihydroxy)vitamin DSB3/SB, and the method for regenerating the dentin.
