Abstract

Background: Biomimetic, bioinspired, and bioactive synthetic materials aim to replicate natural processes to address issues or substitute existing structures.


Aim: This meta-analysis study's primary goal was to investigate biomimetics in restorative dentistry.


Patients and Methods: The Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions and the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) criteria were both followed by this research. Based on the following PICO question components, the search strategy was created and executed utilizing the PubMed restricted vocabulary and free keywords. The Cochrane Risk of Bias Assessment Tool 1 (ROB1) was used to assess the quality of the included studies.


Results: No variations in clinical outcomes between the teeth treated using light-cured calcium silicate or other calcium-based materials were found in our meta-analysis of the clinical outcomes of indirect pulp capping in permanent teeth at six months. A statistically substantial variation favoring the control group was seen in our meta-analysis of the clinical effectiveness of indirect pulp capping in permanent teeth utilizing a light-cured calcium silicate-based material at 12 months.


Conclusion: There was no discernible variation between the controls and TheraCal LC in the available evidence for direct pulp capping in permanent teeth. After a year, indirect pulp capping in permanent teeth demonstrated a statistically significant variation that was in favor of the control group. Furthermore, since there was a chance of bias in the included research, the evidence's confidence ranged from low to moderate.
