Applications of Dental Pulp Stem Cells in Tissue Engineering

Oral tissues and organs are connected functionally in the oral cavity, which is a complex structure. Dental pulp stem cells have therapeutic potential in the regeneration of dental, periodontal, and oral systems. 

Dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) are neural crest-derived cells with a high capacity for differentiation across numerous cell lineages. The regeneration of salivary glands and bone deformities appears to be feasible by employing DPSCs in oral-related structures.
