Stem cells from teeth (mesenchymal stem cells) are different from those found in cord blood (hematopoietic stem cells). Cord blood cells can be used to treat blood disorders such as leukaemia, but stem cells from teeth are different. Stem cells from teeth can be used to grow a range of tissues including bone, nerve, fat, muscle and cartilage and may one day be used to grow entire organs. It is widely believed that stem cells will be used to treat a wide variety of diseases and injuries within the next decade.
