The team says that humans have a third set of teeth available as buds, ready to grow as needed. A sliver of what makes sharks so intriguing comes with their ability to regrow teeth. And while a ...

This dinosaur’s skull was light as air but its mouth was packed with power—and a unique ability to quickly grow teeth. Here’s ...

A team of researchers figured out the ideal hydrogel to grow teeth from stem cells in vitro. In the future, entire teeth could be grown in that hydrogel and implanted, or tooth cells could get ...

In order to get closer to a potential solution, the researchers behind the study turned to pigs, who can grow five or six sets of teeth compared to humans' two sets. The scientists combined human ...

The study says some animals like sharks and elephants have the ability to grow new teeth but humans only have one set from adulthood. The ability to regenerate teeth would therefore be a major ...

Pigs have multiple sets of teeth, so there are cells from underdeveloped teeth that have not broken through the gums. After collecting the cells, Yelick and Zhang grow them in a lab until there are a ...

That must have been one heck of a toothy smile—imagine regular pig teeth growing next to bioengineered human-ish ones. After the growing period, the researchers were happy to observe “the ...

Dr Jaradi explains that one of the primary reasons for wisdom teeth growing sideways is the lack of space in the jaw. By the time these teeth start to erupt, the other molars have already taken ...

In our study, we measured the growth of these incisor teeth in kangaroos and honey possums and found they never stop growing. We can use this continuous growth to age marsupials by exactly how ...
