Abstract

Diabetes is a systemic, endocrine pathology that affects a large number of people worldwide. Its oral manifestations are numerous and can contribute to tooth mortification and loss. Direct pulp capping represents a viable therapeutic alternative for preserving dental vitality, particularly with the advent of new calcium silicate-based materials such as Biodentine™.The aim of this work is to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of direct pulp capping with Biodentine™ in diabetic patients.This study, carried out between March and September 2024 in a private dental practice in Faravohitra, Antananarivo, involved two cases. The results showed clinical and radiographic success: the patients were no longer in pain, the fillings were airtight, and no periapical or peridental lesions were observed, thus preserving the vitality of the treated teeth.Nevertheless, further research is needed to confirm these long-term results and better understand the influence of different factors on treatment success, as well as to assess the performance of the biomaterials used.
