Organoids have now been created from stem cells to secrete the proteins that form dental enamel, the substance that protects teeth from damage and decay. A multi-disciplinary team of scientists from ...

In a remarkable breakthrough, scientists at King’s College London have successfully grown human teeth in a laboratory for the first time, offering a glimpse into a future where damaged or missing ...

Losing a tooth can be a frustrating and costly experience. Current solutions like dentures and implants can be expensive, uncomfortable, and require ongoing maintenance. But what if we could regrow ...

It’s a frustrating fact that our bodies can’t regenerate damaged tooth enamel, but scientists at the University of Washington (UW) have now grown mini teeth in the lab that secrete enamel-producing ...

"Human children grow at a uniquely slow pace by comparison with other mammals. When and where did this schedule evolve? Have technological advances, farming and cities had any effect upon it?

The interaction between genetics and tissue environment shapes how individual teeth form in different regions of the jaw. While most experimental studies have focused on mandibular (lower jaw) teeth, ...

In a groundbreaking research achievement, scientists have successfully grown human teeth in a lab for the first time. These lab-grown teeth have the potential to integrate into the jaw and even repair ...

For decades, dentists and scientists have dreamed of helping people regrow lost teeth. Now, thanks to remarkable advances in genetics, molecular biology, and regenerative medicine, that dream is ...
