Medical Breakthrough: Stem Cells in Teeth
Researchers at the National Institutes of Health recently discovered stem cells in baby teeth and impacted wisdom teeth. Ongoing medical research demonstrates that these stem cells can be manipulated to grow into organ tissue, bone, brain cells, nerve cells, and cartilage. Medical researchers around the world are working today to develop powerful new treatments from stem cells for a wide range of diseases and injuries. Stem cells from teeth are a non-controversial and convenient way for individuals and parents to ensure today that they and their children can benefit from tomorrow’s new medical treatments.
StemSave works with dentists to provide an easy-to-use service to enable the individual or parent to harvest and cryogenically preserve these very valuable stem cells non invasively for future use in regenerative and personalized medical treatments and therapies.
SCOMSA is proud to announce our association with StemSave. We are delighted to be able to initiate the collection and preservation process for all clinically qualified candidates. If you would like to contact StemSave directly, you can do so at info@StemSave.com.
