A set of human teeth under an orthopantomogram. Tooth regeneration is a stem cell based regenerative medicine procedure in the field of tissue engineering and stem cell biology to replace damaged or lost teeth by regrowing them from autologous stem cells.
Dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) are stem cells present in the dental pulp, which is the soft living tissue within teeth. DPSCs can be collected from dental pulp by means of a non-invasive practice. It can be performed with an adult after simple extraction or to the young after surgical extraction of wisdom teeth. [1]
According to a recent study, baby teeth contain an abundance of stem cells, a very special type of cell that can potentially grow replacement tissue in the body and cure a number of diseases.
Treatments are currently in clinical trials to repair severed nerves, with early success. Stem cells induced to a neural fate injected in to a severed nerve. Within four weeks, regeneration of previously damaged stem cells and completely formed nerve bundles were observed. [21] Stem cells are also in clinical phases for treatment in ophthalmology.

This is a list of countries by stem cell research trials for the purpose of commercializing treatments as of June 2020, using data from ClinicalTrials.gov. [1]
The approach used in the clinical trial also requires both the transplant and stem cell donation to occur within a two-week period, which can be a significant burden on patients, donors and health ...
The FDA approved a phase I clinical trial with ViaCyte beta cells derived from human embryonic stem cell for the treatment of diabetes in August 2014. [15] The cells will be delivered in immunoprotective capsules and pre-clinical results in animal models showed remission of symptoms within a few months. [16]
