Two distinct stem cell lineages that drive tooth root and alveolar bone formation have been identified by researchers from Science Tokyo. Using genetically modified mice and lineage-tracing techniques ...

Tooth stem cell banking involves parents sending their children's lost milk teeth to a laboratory where the dental pulp stem cells are harvested and stored. The service costs around £1900 (€2189; ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. — About 1 in 10 children are born with at least one missing permanent tooth due to congenital anomalies. And a much higher percentage of adults lose teeth from decay or injury over their ...

What if a missing tooth could be regrown, not by nature, but in a lab using your own cells? Scientists at King’s College London have found a way to grow living teeth in the lab, bringing this ...

A novel study on the natural coordination of tooth development in time and space, led by Dr. Han-Sung Jung at the Yonsei University College of Dentistry, Korea, has discovered that positional ...

Scientists in Melbourne have discovered how tiny electrical pulses can steer stem cells as they grow, opening the door to new improved ways of creating new tissues, organs, nerves and bones. Dr. Amy ...

The growth plates contain special stem cells that continuously produce new cartilage cells, which are converted into bone tissue. In the case of growth disorders in children with a height ...

A novel study on the natural coordination of tooth development in time and space, led by Dr. Han-Sung Jung at the Yonsei University College of Dentistry, Korea, has discovered that "lingual" cells on ...
