Imagine how your teeth grow again in place of your teeth you took out. This sounds like a plot of science -fiction film, except that it is real and happens in Japan. Dr. Katsu Takahashi, an oral surgeon at the Kitano Hospital in Osaka, is conducting a research on the company « Torregem Biopharma ». His team found that people have sleeping buds in the jaw, a third set of teeth that never grow.
By creating a drug with monoclonal trg035 antibodies, which block this protein, Japanese scientists deceived the body and managed to make new teeth – first in mice and rats, and now in humans. Antibodies affect signal roads, allowing the embryos to develop into new teeth. This process would not only allow natural replacement of lost teeth, but would also solve the problem of innate defects, such as anodone, a condition in which people naturally lack certain teeth. Teeth regeneration can also become an option for those who have lost their teeth due to injury, illness or old age.
Thanks to this research, the potential third set of teeth, which remain evolutionary, could be activated and growing. Takahashi’s trip began in the 1990s at the University of Kyoto, and in 2005 success was achieved, and mice grew up extra teeth. People’s trials began in 2024 in Kyoto, when the drug was tested on men who lacked molars. An experiment for children who lacked teeth this year began. If successful, this solution can replace the denture forever.
