Stem cell therapy offers promising dental applications by harnessing myofibroblastoid pericytes for oral tissue regeneration. This approach aims to provide cures for dental diseases and defects, improving oral health.

Area of Science:

  • Biomaterials science
  • Tissue engineering
  • Molecular biology
  • Genomics

Background:

  • Recent scientific advances in biomaterials, cell culture, tissue engineering, and genomics are paving the way for novel dental technologies.
  • Stem cells, identified as myofibroblastoid pericytes located around blood vessels, have shown potential for mineralizing teeth in response to injury.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review and facilitate the development of stem cell therapy for restoring and regenerating oral tissues.
  • To explore how new technologies can be applied in dentistry to meet patient demand for healthy dentition.

Main Methods:

  • Review of scientific literature on restorative biomaterials, in vitro cell culture, tissue grafting, tissue engineering, molecular biology, and genomics.
