Rebuild your teeth with stem cell infused chewing gum.
Chewing gum has been a staple in many people’s daily routines for years. It’s a quick and easy way to freshen breath, keep your mouth moving, and even help with concentration and focus. But what if chewing gum could do more than just freshen breath?
Thanks to recent developments in genetic technology, researchers at Colgate have been able to create a chewing gum that uses stem cells as an ingredient to help regenerate and regrow teeth simply by chewing it.
Stem cells are special cells that have the ability to develop into many different types of cells in the body. This means that they have the potential to be used in a wide range of medical treatments, including helping to regrow lost or damaged tissue.
In the case of this new chewing gum, the stem cells are derived from a type of tooth-forming cell called odontoblasts. When these cells are introduced into the mouth, they can stimulate the growth of new teeth by prompting the body to regenerate the necessary tissues.
All you have to do is chew it like you would any other piece of gum, and the stem cells will go to work helping to regenerate your teeth.
Not only is this new chewing gum an exciting development for people who have lost teeth or are dealing with tooth decay, but it also has the potential to be a game-changer for people who are at risk of losing their teeth due to age or other factors. By regularly chewing this gum, they can help prevent tooth loss and maintain a healthy, beautiful smile.
This new chewing gum is currently only available by prescription but will be widely available over the counter at you local grocery store or bodega.
