Tooth Could Signal New Era in Organ Regeneration

[TheRantingCabbie]

Cool. I could use some new teeth. Pardon me while I go get some Rottweiler DNA.

[xxwzaebd]

They can be used with inceram crowns even if they don't grow to the exact original shape.

[xxwzaebd]

A new technology has been developed in the US which uses toothlike scaffolds, perhaps printed out from a 3D printer. It will easily integrate with the surrounding tissue.

.this research is very important. It's sad that your parents won't let you get an implant. They are getting better all the time. However; you may need your bone rebuilt and then you may have to wear a temporary partial denture for 3 to 6 months while the implant integrates. Regeneration is the most important discovery ever. Atrophy will be involved when missing a tooth. but with this connective fibers will be present. Most likely, a root would be cultured and a crown attatched. still .

very very very very good!!

You can't start trials on humans, or at least not until it is safe. If you care so much about funds why don't you offer yourself under the risk of having molars instead of incisors?? People think that science is like buying onian cream and chips! That makes me go mad...

[JetJL]

Sign me up! I really need one for my front teeth! My parents wont allow me to get an implant and I don't like the idea of a bridge or partial denture.

[cristop5]

This makes me sick. We can't afford dental care for seniors, but it seems if a mouse has a sore tooth there are endless funds.

It's political correctness gone mad!

[cristoballs]

0:42 "...while all mice are genetically identical..."

that can't be right. can it?

[BingoFolly]

Maybe they only mean the ones in their lab?

[cristoballs]

i read up a little bit about lab mice after watching this. turns out their nearly genetically identical due to multiple series of inbreeding. it would be almost impossible to produce two genetically identical mice outside of cloning.

[bamboo4tameshigiri]

The reporter most likely got it mixed up that the mice in the study were genetically identical. It can't be that all mice are identical.

[cristoballs]

ah yes... i see. nevertheless, cool discovery!

[Hellsadvocate]

Lol yeah, genetically identical would be nearly impossible. Very very low odds.

[Hellsadvocate]

Also, I can't find it so I may be wrong, Mice most likely have a large number LESS genes that most organisms. Idk, the AP always gets something wrong lol

[seeingglass86]

no, thats not right. Not at all.

[Nando85Q]

Those have to be cloned rats for research and investigation purposed. Rats outside the lab have at least a few differences.

[pubtor]

good news

[HaloGunner117]

Awesome... Can't wait for something like this to become reality for humans. Would help out so many people.

[BinkieMcFartnuggets]

Surprisingly, the mice are not as thrilled about this as they should be.

[luckstergal]

Eh, the mice don't give a damn. They just want their food, water, and nappy time.

[elindred]

At last, my dream of one day owning a second penis has renewed hope.

[Kostly]

I hope someday they will be able to grow a new cock for John Bobbit.

[kissthis200]

lol wow associatedpress has alot of mixed viewers

[sparks12001]

Hawt. I jacked off 4 times to this video already, and i'm still going...

rofl

[7jerryv7]

Did a mouse fetus have to die so this mouse could get a new tooth? When does a fetus become a mouse?

[GeminiAzules]

When does a seed become a plant?

[7jerryv7]

When does a chicken become an egg? Wait, that makes no sense.

[GeminiAzules]

If you immediately know the candlelight is fire, then the egg was cooked a long time ago.

[7jerryv7]

Holy batshit, its the riddler!

[MetalPcAngel]

l thought they already did this?

[Vladimir0538]

Wow, the two first comments are so far apart from each other...Gross & Amazing xD

[KirbyPwnz13]

GROSS!

[VampireLord66]

Amazing,
