Description
Dentin Biomodification is a comprehensive review of the structural, biochemical, and clinical aspects of dentin and the emerging strategies used to enhance its mechanical and biological properties. The book explores dentin composition, collagen architecture, proteoglycans, endogenous proteases, and their roles in maintaining dentin integrity. Special emphasis is placed on physical and chemical biomodification techniques, including collagen cross-linking agents, matrix stabilization, and inhibition of enzymatic degradation. The text further discusses root biomodification, adhesive dentistry applications, regenerative approaches, and recent advances in biomimetic materials. By integrating fundamental science with clinical relevance, this work provides valuable insights for postgraduate students, researchers, and clinicians seeking to improve the longevity and performance of restorative and endodontic treatments.
