Is there any advantage of this over implants? Maybe I don't understand the full scope but this seems really roundabout when I have a ceramic implant and it works fine. Maybe a regenerated tooth lasts longer?
Implants slowly erode the jaw bone underneath over time, whereas a new tooth would keep the jaw bone healthy.
Oh ok, that does sound promising if the regeneration works as intended. Thank you for the insightful answer Mr. WashedAnus.
