Summary
The process of dental caries is dynamic and can be either reversible or irreversible depending on the balance between protective and pathologic factors in the oral cavity. Untreated dental caries causes pulpal injury, inflammation, and necrosis. Melatonin plays an essential role in the regulation of bone growth. The actions that melatonin exerts on odontoblasts may be similar to its action on osteoblasts.
