Scientists are working on regenerating teeth.
That is, regrowing dental tissue to replace cavities. Not regrowing totally lost teeth.
I wonder how long it will take to do the procedure? I'd love to go to the office, have them find a cavity, and be all Star Trek and regrow the tissue in seconds. But I imagine it'll actually take hours.
I'll ask my friend studying at Tuffs if she knows anything about this...
ReplyDeleteIt seems cool!
