Breakthrough in Tooth Regeneration
British scientists develop a technique for self-replacing human teeth, surpassing fillings and implants.
The newly grown teeth are stronger, longer-lasting, and less prone to rejection as they are cultivated from the patient's cells.
This breakthrough involves innovative cells that can communicate with existing cells, mimicking natural tooth development.
Although the method is developed, it may take years before the first cultivated tooth cells are implanted in humans.
Two approaches are considered for implanting the newly grown teeth in patients, both involving initial development of tooth cells in the lab.
Experts hail the technique as a sustainable solution for tooth restoration and regeneration, foreseeing a dental revolution.
Scientists anticipate the technology to impact future generations, potentially transforming dental practices.
