The toothlike structures represent a step toward bioengineered replacements for dental implants, say researchers behind the work. Lose an adult tooth, and you’re left with limited options that ...

If you want clean cuts of bread and thin slivers of tomato for your sandwiches (and not a crumbly, splattery mess), you need ...

After collecting the cells, Yelick and Zhang grow them in a lab until there are a sufficient number of cells. In past experiments, Yelick and other researchers "seeded" the cells onto scaffolds -- ...

The toothlike structures represent a step toward bioengineered replacements for dental implants, say researchers behind the work. “We’re working on trying to create functional replacement ...

Like something out of "Little Shop of Horrors," scientists have managed to grow human-like teeth in a lab — and implant them inside a miniature pig's mouth. As the MIT Technology Review explains, ...

After two months, the lab-grown teeth were subsequently removed — sorry to those pigs — and Yelick was impressed upon discovering that they were very "toothlike." The new structures had even ...
