DNA virus tropism in healthy dental pulp: an in-situ reservoir site for torque teno virus and parvovirus B19
These findings emphasized that even in the absence of a disease evaluated by histology, dental pulp can harbor DNA viruses and be an anatomical site of virus tropism, suggesting viral persistence rather than direct pathogenic activity.
