A novel study on the natural coordination of tooth development in time and space, led by Dr. Han-Sung Jung at the Yonsei University College of Dentistry, Korea, has discovered that "lingual" cells on ...

Primary tooth eruption and development are governed by a complex interplay of genetic programming, maternal and perinatal influences, nutritional status and broader environmental factors. Genetically, ...

The creation of multiple stem-cell-derived models of mammalian embryogenesis is opening many new doors to study human development and brings a need for scientists to demonstrate responsible dialog ...

Two distinct stem cell lineages that drive tooth root and alveolar bone formation have been identified by researchers from Science Tokyo. Using genetically modified mice and lineage-tracing techniques ...

A study may shed light on tooth enamel development disruption by revealing a new children's autoimmune disorder that hinders proper tooth enamel development. The disorder is common in people with a ...
