Dr. George Huang joins StemSave. Discusses dental stem cells.

Boston University Professor Dr. George Huang, the Herbert Schilder Chair in Endodontics, Director at Boston University's Henry M. Goldman School of Dental Medicine and Science Advisor to StemSave, discusses his research utilizing dental stem cells.

Dr. Huang and his team demonstrated the ability of dental stem cells to repair teeth; more specifically, by facilitating the growth of dentin and pulp in a tooth model using a compromised tooth, biological scaffolding and stem cells obtained from wisdom teeth. The re-growth of pulp and dentin was done in vivo utilizing mice. Dr. Huang and his team plan to apply the successful methods to larger animals and believes that stem cell based biologic oriented repair of dental trauma will begin to find its way into the dentist's office in the near future.

Confirming dental stem cells ability to differentiate into various other types of tissue such as bone, neural cells and as a source for iPS cells, Dr. Huang envisages dental stem cells as a potential source of very 'plastic' stem cells that can be utilized to treat a wide variety of disease and trauma as regenerative medical treatments advance.

“I feel I am completely cured” says Ms. Gianopoulos, “my symptoms have disappeared and I have a recovery of many functions, notably my balance and my muscle strength is all coming (back). Even after six months, I feel like there are good changes happening almost every day. Before, my biggest fear was that the changes wouldn’t (hold). I don’t even worry about having a relapse anymore”.

Dr. Hemangi of Noble continues: “These are early days and certainly all evidence that the combination of liberation and stem cell therapies working together at this point is anecdotal. However I am not aware of other medical facilities in the world that offer the synthesis of both to MS patients on an approved basis and it is indeed a rare opportunity for MS patients to take advantage of a treatment that is quite possibly unique in the world”.
