Dental & Craniofacial Regeneration

Multipotent cells recoverable from the soft tissue inside a tooth — and a surprisingly accessible source for regeneration research.

Why dentin and pulp are treated as one functional unit, and what makes rebuilding it so difficult.

Restoring a tooth's living pulp rather than replacing it with filling material — promise and present limits.

A stem cell population recovered from baby teeth — younger, faster-proliferating, and ethically uncomplicated.

Rebuilding the bones and soft tissue of the face and jaw, where function and appearance are inseparable.

Materials that do not merely fill a space but chemically provoke a biological response.
