Scientists have successfully grown teeth in a lab which they say could pave the way for patients to regrow lost teeth in the future. Researchers at King’s College London say the breakthrough ...

The pig’s mouth revealed its ordinary sharp, tusk-like canines saddled up beside smaller, slightly more human-looking teeth nubs. In theory, a similar process could play out in humans.

The Genetic Opera," scientists have managed to grow human-like teeth in a lab — and implant them inside a miniature pig's mouth, in a harbinger of weird new frontiers for dentistry.

Researchers have grown human teeth in the jaws of pigs in an attempt to eventually offer a viable method of tooth replacement for those in need.

Rare microbiomes from two 4000-year-old teeth could help scientists further understand the impact dietary changes had on the evolution of a cavity-causing bacteria.

Our sensitive teeth originally evolved from the "body armor" of extinct fish that lived 465 million years ago, scientists say. In a new study, the researchers showed how sensory tissue discovered ...
