Abstract
In past years, both cell transplantation and cell homing have been explored for dental pulp tissue engineering. Sufficient evidence shows that after cell transplantation, the regeneration of a functional dentin-pulp complex is possible. A new milestone was reached recently. The concept has now been evaluated in clinical studies. However, the approach is afflicted with high efforts and operating expenses; thus cell homing might be a viable alternative. In this article, the latest developments on the recruitment of resident stem cells by dentin-derived growth factors in injectable fibrin-based scaffold materials will be discussed.
