What happens during the disease - abnormal hard tissue formation in pulp
Abnormal hard tissue formation in pulp is caused by a disruption in the normal pulp-dentin complex. this disruption can be caused by trauma, infection, or inflammation, leading to an increase in the production of hard tissue components such as mineralized collagen and dentin matrix proteins. when these components accumulate in the pulp, they form an abnormal hard tissue, which can lead to a decrease in pulp vitality, inflammation, and pain.
