Regeneration of a functional tooth has the potential to be a promising therapeutic strategy. Experiments have shown that with the use of principles of bioengineering along with adult stem cells, scaffold material, and signaling molecules, tooth regeneration is possible. Research work is in progress on creating a viable bioroot with all its support. A new culture needs to be created that can possibly provide all the nutrients to the stem cells. With the ongoing research, tissue engineering is likely to revolutionize dental health and well-being of people by regenerating teeth over the next decade.
功能性牙齿再生有可能成为一种很有前景的治疗策略。实验表明，运用生物工程原理以及成体干细胞、支架材料和信号分子，牙齿再生是可行的。目前正在开展研究工作，以构建一个具备所有支持结构的可存活生物牙根。需要创建一种新的培养环境，它有可能为干细胞提供所有营养物质。随着研究的不断推进，组织工程很可能在未来十年通过牙齿再生彻底改变人们的口腔健康和福祉。
