Stem Cells – Emerging Concepts in Dentistry - Abstract
Human stem cells have a major effect in the development of human bodies. Acting as an in vitro model, human stem cells have a great value in the study of the mechanism
of individual development and in the cell replacement and regeneration treatments and gene therapy of tissue deficiency diseases.
This article gives a brief overview on recent advances in the field of stem cell research and its advancement in enhancing the field of tissue engineering especially pertaining to advanced dental treatment modalities; encompassing tooth, bone, cartilage, skeletal tissue and other variants of tissue engineering.
