Stem cell in dentistry: Today and tomorrow

Abstract

Stem cells are cells that have the ability to differentiate into any cell type in the body. This makes them a powerful tool for treating a variety of diseases and injuries. There are two main types of stem cells: embryonic stem cells and adult stem cells. Embryonic stem cells are derived from embryos, while adult stem cells are found in adult tissues. Embryonic stem cells can differentiate into any cell type in the body, making them a powerful tool for treating various diseases and injuries. However, their use is limited by ethical concerns and the risk of rejection by the body. Following review article will discuss some new fields in which these stem cells and their modifications can be used.
