What Is Stem Cell Therapy?
Stem Cell Therapy is a process that begins with preserving the valuable stem cells found inside a healthy extracted tooth.
The soft tissue of a healthy tooth, known as the dental pulp, contains mesenchymal stem cells that can differentiate into various types of tissue. Instead of being discarded after extraction, a suitable tooth is transported to an authorized laboratory in a special transport kit. There, the stem cells are isolated, undergo the necessary quality controls, and are stored through 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, nerves, and other tissues. As scientific research advances, these cells stored today may contribute to important treatment options in the future.
Every process begins with a clinical evaluation to determine whether the tooth to be extracted is suitable for stem cell storage.
Who Is It Suitable For?
This application may be suitable for patients who:
- Are going to have a healthy tooth extracted.
- Want to store their own stem cells as an investment in the future.
- Are interested in developments in regenerative medicine.
- Want to preserve valuable biological material of their own 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 Evaluation
- 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 its living tissues as much as possible.
Step 3: Safe Transport
- The extracted tooth is placed in a sterile preservation kit and safely delivered to an authorized laboratory.
Step 4: Stem Cell Processing
- At the laboratory, the stem cells are isolated, quality checks are performed, and they are prepared for long-term storage.
Step 5: Cryopreservation
- The stem cells are stored long term at ultra-low temperatures for their potential use in the future.
