Two distinct stem cell lineages that drive tooth root and alveolar bone formation have been identified by researchers from ...

Damaged teeth could one day be repaired with "living fillings" created from stem cells, a new study reports. In the lab, researchers induced stem cells to form small, multicellular mini-organs that ...

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 ...

Every year, dentists fill millions of cavities from teeth that have decayed. Ordinarily, this does its job in protecting the inner pulp from harm, but in around 10 percent of cases they fail. This ...

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 ...

Researchers from the University of Washington in Seattle report that organoids created from stem cells can secrete the proteins that form dental enamel. Their findings were published in Developmental ...

The first time you lost a tooth, you may have wiggled it and wiggled it -- and maybe even went to extremes to pull it out. Why? Because after the pain came a prize from the Tooth Fairy. But, that ...

Walking into a dentist’s office could be less of a frightening thing in the future if scientists Kyle Vining of Harvard and Adam Celiz of the British University of Nottingham have anything to do with ...

The human body is a marvellous thing. But like anything built by evolution, it has plenty of flaws. Consider teeth. Whereas sharks grow new teeth throughout their lives, adult humans get one set, ...

Researchers from Tokyo Medical and Dental University (TMDU) shed new light on the characteristics of the niche in which neural stem cells reside in the developing brain Tokyo, Japan – When it comes to ...

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; ...

Researchers shed light on the neural stem and progenitor cell (NSPC) microenvironment during development. Neurosphere formation from embryonic mouse forebrain NSPCs was significantly increased under ...
