Stem cells found in teeth could be life-saving in the future (U.S. National Center for Biotechnology).
Teeth carry genetic information and prevail for hundreds of years.
The mouth is an archive of information: by analyzing the teeth we can know age, gender, determine if there is enough calcium, etc. In La Clínica Dental, they know that in the mouth you can find a great amount of stem cells, that is why it is important to keep it in optimal condition.
Human beings have stem cells in their bodies. These are developed during gestation in the womb and prevail, have the potential to develop into many different types of cells in the body and serve as a repair system for the organism.
Importance of good dental health
The National Council of Dentists in Spain states that, “the space of the teeth contains blood vessels, nerves and also stem cells that are plenipotentiary. That is, they can take the necessary drift to regenerate damaged tissues”.
At La Clínica Dental, for this and many other reasons, we promote a culture of prevention and the importance of good dental health.
The genetic information that prevails in dental stem cells and the individual can be used in the future to treat damaged cells, such as those caused by diseases like diabetes, cancer or myocardial infarction, which through regenerative therapy, when used correctly, will regenerate damaged tissues.
On the other hand, at the National Center for Biotechnology in the United States, a study has been published that reveals that baby teeth contain stem cells that have been less exposed to environmental damage and are therefore more valuable in helping to regenerate new cells in other parts of the body.
This contribution is of great importance for dental specialists, as it is valuable information to raise awareness about the importance of taking care of teeth. Currently, bone marrow is used as the main source of stem cells, but it is a difficult organ to access. That is why baby teeth are so useful, because they are ‘loaded’ with the same stuff.
