Abstract

Stem cells are various cell types that possess the special capability to self-renew and differentiate into multiple cell lineages. In recent decades, they have been investigated and employed for repair and regenerative therapies. In recent years, researchers have dedicated efforts to uncover the function of stem cells in addressing various illnesses. Stem cells have the ability to self-replicate and differentiate into various somatic cells. They would likewise hold a unique role in the future across different clinical areas. Consequently, identifying safe and inexpensive methods to acquire these cells is a primary goal of research. Jaw, facial, and oral tissues are abundant sources of stem cells, which are more easily obtainable than other types of stem cells. The wider use of stem cell-based procedures in dentistry could revolutionize the daily practices and methods that clinicians employ when treating patients. Nearly every area of dentistry could gain from these recent discoveries.
