In the work of Peng, et al.22(2011), tricalcium silicate (main component of MTA and BiodentineTM) had greater odontogenic potential compared with CH observed through the expression pattern of odontogenic markers (DSPP, DMP-1, osteocalcin, alkaline phosphatase and collagen type I). Here, DMP1 is linked to cyclic hematopoiesis.
