Do the baby teeth have to be newly “lost”....or preserved in some way.....just wondering....I have some of my 38 year old son’s baby teeth....wondering if they might come in handy sometime for him???

As far as I know, the baby teeth are the ones that fall out as the adult ones come in. I am not sure how the scientists preserve these teeth. There may be a scientific journal on line that may go into more detail.

There is other scientific talk about growing new teeth that have been removed. I think this too is using the baby teeth stem cells. Just think, no more expensive crowns and root canals. Just pull it out and grow a new one.
