Regenerative Applications Using Tooth Derived Stem Cells in Other Than Tooth Regeneration: A Literature Review

Figure 1

Regeneration of various tissues or organs from tooth derived stem cells. Stem cells from tooth related structures can be used to regenerate not only dentin-pulp complex but also various tissues or organs of body, such as bone, vascular system, nerve, liver, pancreas, salivary glands, skeletal muscle, and cornea. DPSCs (dental pulp stem cells), PDLSCs (periodontal ligament stem cells), SHEDs (stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth), SCAPs (stem cells from apical papilla), and DFPCs (dental follicle progenitor cells).
