In studies of patients had wisdom teeth that were the impact that caused the loss of bone (resorption) on the impaction. Because the defects of the bones would not repair itself after teeth of wisdom have been removed, the researchers applied a mixture of dental pulp stem cells harvested from the patient uniaxial, the upper teeth of wisdom and you place them on made of collagen sponge "scaffold". This mixture is then used to fill in the areas affected, which remained at impact teeth were removed from the lower jaw. (Area of the upper jaw served as a control area or comparison — not dental stem cells were used).
Three months after treatment, the bone was completely regenerate the site of injury and periodontal tissues have been restored. Optimal bone regeneration was seen in seven patients who returned for follow-up. Researchers found that the clinical research shows that dental stem cells and collagen Sponge scaffold completely you can restore bone defects of human jaw and indicates that these cells have the potential to repair or reconstruct tissues and organsPreviously, JAWS defects have been repaired using dental stem cells in animal model — never in humans. In fact, not therapy dental stem cells have ever been shown in humans. As you can guess, this bone grafting research is very exciting for all of us who believe in the future of promise dental stem cell therapy — whether dental stem cell banking facility as our own NDPL, or people who want to keep their own or their children's pulp is a source of stem cells, which could be placed on the future needs of the medical.
