What treatments could tooth stem cells be used for?
Stem cell-based therapies are being investigated for the treatment of many conditions, including neurodegenerative conditions such as Parkinson’s disease and Multiple Sclerosis, liver disease, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, autoimmune diseases, musculoskeletal disorders and for nerve regeneration following brain or spinal cord injury.
Currently, patients are being treated using stem cells for bone fractures, cancer (bone marrow transplants) and spinal fusion surgery.

Stem cells from dental pulp (mesenchymal stem cells) are different from those found in cord blood or bone marrow (hematopoietic stem cells).Stem cells cultured from both milk teeth and adult extracted teeth, wisdom teeth in particular, are being used in a variety of global research projects.
Leading scientists have reported that dental pulp stem cells could play an important part in repair and regenerative treatments for diseases such as:
Dental Applications
Pulpal regeneration | Craniofacial reconstruction | Engineering new teeth
Medical Applications
Corneal repair | Lamellar bone generation |Liver disease treatment
Bone regeneration | Cardiac repair following myocardial infarction | Brain tissue repair following stroke
Spinal cord regeneration | Diabetes mellitus | Muscle repair | Muscular Distrophy
