got teeth?
«[a] pioneering technology will allow the patient to grow his own natural replacement teeth instead of having a synthetic implant. as well as the benefit of not experiencing surgical trauma, there is also the psychological boost of "having one's own teeth".»«... stem cells are taken from the patient, treated and cultured in a laboratory, then re-implanted in the patient's jaw under the gum at the site of the missing or extracted tooth. this then grows into a fully-formed, live tooth in the same way that teeth develop naturally.»
provided human trials are successful, the public may benefit from this technology in about five years at a cost of round three thousand dollars per tooth.
