The toothlike structures represent a step toward bioengineered replacements for dental implants, say researchers behind the work.

Soon, however, there might be a third option: lab-grown teeth. Researchers at Tufts University School of Dental Medicine have grown a mix of human and pig tooth cells in pig jaws, a method that ...

CINCINNATI (WKRC) - A recently-published study revealed that scientists grew human-like teeth in a pig's mouth by using a mix of human and pig DNA. The new study, published in Stem Cells ...

In a new study, a team led by Pamela Yelick, a professor at the Tufts School of Dental Medicine, has successfully grown bioengineered teeth in pigs using a combination of human and pig cells.

Tufts University researchers took material from human and pig teeth and were able to grow a tooth-like structure. They hope their findings could... Scientists grew human-like teeth in pigs.

Unlike humans, pigs can grow up to five or six sets of teeth throughout their lifetime. Pamela Yelick, a professor at the Tufts School of Dental Medicine, believes that understanding how pigs ...

In a paper published in late December, a team at Tufts University reported having successfully grown human-like teeth in pigs. Pamela Yelick, a professor at the Tufts School of Dental Medicine and ...
