Growing teeth is a bioengineering technology with the ultimate goal to create / re-create new full-molars in a person or an animal.

Chronology

  • 2002 – British scientists have learned how to grow almost whole, but feeble teeth from single cells.
  • 2007 – Japanese scientists have bred mice almost full new teeth, but without a root.
  • 2009 – from the stem cells were grown full teeth in mice, and even managed to grow a tooth root, previously it was not possible, but there is a problem, it is that grown teeth were slightly less "native" teeth.[1]
  • 2013 - Chinese scientists grow human teeth in mice using stem cells taken from human urine.[2]

Methods

  • Outer – the tooth is grown separately and implanted in the patient.
  • Inner – the tooth is grown directly into the patient's mouth.

Regenerative Research

  • 2012 – Indian researchers found a way to cure and regenerate an infected root canal through stem cell activation. This replaces the old method of removing the tooth nerve.[3]
  • 2013 - Swiss researchers regenerate tooth enamel of early cavities using a peptide-based biomaterial.[4]
