Soon everyone will be able to grow new teeth, even in 3 rows! Professor Jeremy Mao from Columbia University has proposed a revolutionary new technology that will allow you to forget about drills, implants, dentures and other dental joys.
The problem is that the installation of implants requires repeated visits to the doctor and is often accompanied by pain, discomfort and inflammation … But Professor Mao went the other way!
HOW TO GROW TEETH
The doctor developed the technology of growing teeth directly in an empty alveolus, and this method revolutionized the world of dentistry.
Jeremy Mao made a frame from natural materials, which was similar in shape to a real tooth, and placed a growth stimulator in it. In the experimental animal, he implanted the rudiment of such a tooth into the empty alveolus. The porous structure of the framework allowed the stem cells of the animal's body to migrate into this structure.
On average, after 9 weeks, the subjects developed teeth that perfectly engrafted with the restoration of the periodontal ligaments.

The result of Professor Mao's discovery: now it is possible to grow a tooth right in the patient's mouth in just 9 weeks.
Well, we will wait for the soonest application of the new technology in our clinics! Jeremy Mao gave us hope that soon we will not have to endure long and painful manipulations at the dentist's appointment, but by pulling out a bad tooth, grow a new one in its place.
