Effect of combined application of premixed bioceramic paste and diode laser in vital pulp therapy: an immunohistochemical randomized controlled split-mouth in vivo animal experiment

Key Points

• The research aims to examine the effectiveness of bioceramic paste and diode laser application in pulp therapy and their influence on dentin sialoprotein expression.
• Randomized controlled split-mouth design
• In vivo animal model
• Application of premixed bioceramic paste and diode laser
• Immunohistochemical analysis to assess DSP expression
• Bioceramic paste showed similar effectiveness to MTA in promoting DSP expression.
• Diode laser application did not influence DSP expression in this model.
