We can finally regrow teeth

[Bornstarch]

They've been talking about this for awhile. Japanese scientists figured out a way to regrow teeth by suppressing proteins that prevent new teeth from growing.

There's always "groundbreaking" medical news to come out every week, but this one is legit and they're starting human trials right now and they expect the treatment to be available to everyone by 2030. They've had great success regrowing teeth in animals and are now trying it on volunteer patients.

This will pave the way not only for teeth but for human bones as well.

World-first tooth-regrowing drug will be given to humans in September

The world's first human trial of a drug that can regenerate teeth will begin in a few months, less than a year on from news of its success in animals. This paves the way for the medicine to be commercially available as early as 2030.

wanna hope for the best, but animal trials aren't always promising. they've cured just about everything in animals, but it just doen't work on humans. animals are miraculous creatures. they've cured cancer, aids, blindness, you name it in rats. it's a lot harder to get that success on humans.

I remember a lady had stem cell injections on her face to get rid of her wrinkles. She ended up growing teeth on her face because the stem cells were in a calcium phosphate solution

Having teeth on your face would be cool because you wouldn't even have to open your mouth to chew on food

That's just a bottle opener at best.

But that means you have to make new mouths

You can bite multiple people with multiple bites

These people can't fix anything. Just look at any complex disease. 0 attempt to find and fix the root cause, only symptom-suppressors the patient has to take for life for $. This will either go terribly wrong, fail, or be a failure from a commercial standpoint and fall into neglect.
