Different Types of Tooth
Stem Cells
Chondrocytes are cells that have the ability to generate cartilage - which would have an important role in the treatment of arthritis and joint injuries.
Osteoblasts are cells that have the ability to generate bone.
Adipocytes are cells that have the ability to repair damaged cardiac tissue following a heart attack.
Mesenchymal stem cells are the most potent of all the tooth cells as they have the ability to develop into a wide range of other reparative cells.
