Stem Cell Applications in Periodontal Regeneration

Dent Clin North Am. 2022 Jan;66(1):53-74. doi: 10.1016/j.cden.2021.06.002. Epub 2021 Aug 13.

Abstract

In this review, the authors consider the substantial advances that have been made in recent years in stem cell-based periodontal regeneration. These advances involve identifying dental- and nondental-derived stem cells with the capacity to modulate periodontal regeneration, human clinical trials, and emerging concepts, including cell banking, good manufacturing processes, and overall clinical translation.

Keywords: Periodontal regeneration; Stem cells; Tissue engineering.
