What Is Stem Cell Therapy?
Stem Cell Therapy is a process that begins with preserving the valuable stem cells found inside an extracted healthy tooth. The soft tissue of a healthy tooth, known as the dental pulp, contains mesenchymal stem cells that have the ability to develop into different types of tissue. Instead of being discarded after extraction, a suitable tooth is transported to an authorized laboratory in a specialized transport kit. There, the stem cells are isolated, undergo the necessary quality controls, and are stored using cryopreservation for potential future use. Today, tooth-derived stem cells are being researched in regenerative medicine because of their potential to support the regeneration of bone, cartilage, muscle, nerve, and other tissues. As scientific research advances, these cells stored today may contribute to important treatment options in the future. Each process begins with a clinical assessment to determine whether the tooth to be extracted is suitable for stem cell storage.
Who Is It Suitable For?
This procedure may be suitable for: * People who are going to have a healthy tooth extracted. * People who want to store their own stem cells as an investment in the future. * People interested in developments in regenerative medicine. * People who want to preserve their own valuable biological material while the opportunity is available. Suitability for the treatment is determined following an examination by your dentist. How Does the Process Work? Step 1: Clinical Assessment Your dentist evaluates whether the tooth to be extracted is suitable for stem cell storage. Step 2: Tooth Extraction The tooth is carefully extracted while preserving the living tissues inside it as much as possible. Step 3: Safe Transport The extracted tooth is placed in a sterile preservation kit and safely transported to an authorized laboratory. Step 4: Stem Cell Processing At the laboratory, the stem cells are isolated, quality controls are performed, and the cells are prepared for long-term storage. Step 5: Cryopreservation The stem cells are stored for the long term at ultra-low temperatures for their potential future use. Stem Cell Therapy is offered exclusively at Papatya Dental Clinic in Antalya. This makes Papatya Dental Clinic one of the few clinics in Antalya offering this advanced application in regenerative dentistry.
