Scientists at the University of Washington have developed a bioengineered platform that enables the growth of teeth in a laboratory setting, as reported in a study published in the journal Developmental Cell. This innovative approach utilizes a combination of stem cells and a 3D scaffold to mimic the natural development process of teeth, offering potential new avenues for dental regeneration and treatment. The research, led by Dr. Hannele Ruohola-Baker, aims to address the limitations of current dental implant technologies and provide a more natural and effective solution for tooth loss, which affects millions of people worldwide.
