No one can answer this question for me: why would I want ANOTHER SET of my porous enamelled, rotten teeth that put the children of at least TWO dentists through college until an oral surgeon finally put them out of my misery?
I just had my first ever implant last June. It’ll be my last. I hope this new idea works out because the implant procedure is a major PITA.
So you can smile!....................
Some people have teeth pulled from them being cracked or damaged beyond repair. Regrowth would be a great option to painful and expensive implants.
I am missing most of my teeth and implants are impossible for me. Even dentures are impossible. This would be great as right now getting a decent job is impossible.
The problem I see is what other “growth” will this promote and where?
I’m near the end of my life cycle and I okay with the original production models I have left.
Pray tell. What are the proper supplements?

PATIENT: "Doc, you're the greatest!"
DENTIST: "Of course they're 'mouse teeth' ... "
Calcium of course is the big one. But lots of older people who used to live inland had worse teeth then those who lived on the coast because Fluoride and Phosphorous are mostly available in sea food.
This was of course pre-Fluoridated water which might have had good intentions but taking any supplement without having a dosage control is not advisable.
If you were going to grow a third set of teeth as an adult proper nutritional supplements would be necessary.
I’m 63 and still have a baby tooth. I broke two back molars on popcorn kernels and had to have them pulled a year ago. Was planning to get implants or a bridge this winter, but at the last cleaning the dentist said to not bother. A wisdom tooth has magically appeared and is moving into the space.
Some people even have had 3 sets of teeth..................
Freddie Mercury was born with 4 extra teeth, he obviously kept them, he said he could sing better because of the extra teeth.
Tooth & hair regrowth on horizon???
Dang! In 6 weeks I’ll be 91...
Where were these researchers 6-years ago?
Not nessarialy true.
Psoriasis took mine out.
Taking meds for the psoriasis
would have killed me.
I spent a bloody fortune on
trying to save them to the
point of being OCD about the
care to keep them.

Teeth?! What about hair?!
If anyone actually reads the article then they would see that this only applies to those born with a specific condition. And it is only for the young.
