The toothlike structures represent a step toward bioengineered replacements for dental implants, say researchers behind the work.

Soon, however, there might be a third option: lab-grown teeth. Researchers at Tufts University School of Dental Medicine have grown a mix of human and pig tooth cells in pig jaws, a method that ...

In their research, Yelick and her team took soft living tissue from both human and pig teeth, combined them in a lab, and then transplanted it into a mini pig's mouth. They obtained the materials ...

grew a combination of pig and human tooth cells in pieces of pig teeth to create human-like teeth in the animal’s mouth. They achieved this by taking cells from human dental pulp and mixing them ...

To accomplish this successful tooth regeneration, the researchers took living tissue from both human and pig teeth and combined them in a laboratory. From there, they transplanted the teeth into a ...

Tufts University researchers took material from human and pig teeth and were able to grow a tooth-like structure. They hope their findings could... Scientists grew human-like teeth in pigs.
