Scientists raised teeth like human beings in pigs

Losing teeth is annoying and costly. If people lose their teeth thoroughly as they get older, they turn to solutions such as dental prostheses and implants, but they are both expensive and artificial and disturbing. It is also discussed how healthy it is.

What if we could naturally grow the missing teeth naturally? This is the subject of a new research on dental regeneration in humans, led by scientists at the University of Tufts. What is impressive is that the researchers managed to produce human teeth on pig subjects. In other words, animal experiments are achieved. This means that after a while, permission can be obtained for manned experiments.

We are approaching the age of new tooth augmentation from scratch

Of course, there is a reason for using pigs in the research. Pigs can take 5 sets of teeth throughout their lives. Therefore, they have the ability to reproduce the lost teeth. Pigs where human tooth cells planted also managed to produce these teeth. This means that human tooth cells are also suitable for reproduction. Now the detail that researchers will work will be to solve the new teething mechanism of pigs from scratch.

If the work progresses smoothly, we will have a new treatment method for the lost, lost teeth in the near future, and our dentist will sow a new tooth to our chin and enable it to grow naturally. Thus, not artificial, we will have our own natural new teeth.

Returning the spilled teeth research research is not only limited to it. Some time ago, at Kyoto University Hospital in Japan, it was announced that human experiments have started for a different system.
