Abstract

Dental mesenchymal stem cells are an attractive source of autologous stem cells. They offer a biological solution for restoring damaged dental tissues such as vital pulp and periodontal ligament and even, generation of complete or partial tooth structures to form biological implants through tissue engineering. Thus, dental tissue engineering is a new promising therapeutic approach to replace a missing tooth or to restore the damaged dental tissues. The objective of this review article is to highlight the history of the isolation of dental-related stem cells and their various types along with their potentiality and current status of applications in the field of dentistry.
