Japan Is Trying to Grow New Teeth: Could Tooth Regeneration Change Dentistry Forever?
Could losing a tooth one day mean growing another one? Researchers in Japan are developing TRG035, an experimental antibody designed to unlock the body's own tooth-development pathways.

That accuracy actually makes the article stronger because the real science is already remarkable.
I can also monitor TRG035 and alert you when the Phase IIa trial actually begins enrolling or when human tooth-regrowth results are released.
