Tooth root development relies on precise coordination of cellular signals, yet the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Researchers have uncovered how two proteins, Gli2 and Gli3, work together to ...

A novel study on the natural coordination of tooth development in time and space, led by Dr. Han-Sung Jung at the Yonsei University College of Dentistry, Korea, has discovered that "lingual" cells on ...

Two distinct stem cell lineages that drive tooth root and alveolar bone formation have been identified by researchers from Science Tokyo. Using genetically modified mice and lineage-tracing techniques ...

Tooth root development relies on precise coordination of cellular signals, yet the underlying mechanisms remain unclear.

The interaction between Hertwig's epithelial root sheath (HERS) and surrounding mesenchymal cells is crucial for root dentin formation. HERS influences tooth root development and odontoblast ...

A protein that quietly suppresses tooth growth may hold the key to regrowing teeth in adults, according to a line of research that has moved from mouse models to the doorstep of human clinical trials.

Tooth loss and bone degeneration are problems that modern medicine still struggles to fix. Data from the National Bone Health Policy Institute shows that 10 million Americans over the age of 50 have ...

Tooth root formation is a critical process that anchors teeth within the jaw and ensures proper oral function. This complex developmental event ...

Scientists have grown a tooth in a lab, marking a significant step toward regenerative dental treatments. The study, carried out in London by King's College and Imperial College, used a specially ...
