How far are we from regrowing or regenerating teeth?

For close to a decade now I keep reading about trials using different methods, but still nothing in sight.
>>
imagine if you had it done but you couldn't stop it and teeth started growing everywhere, like on your fingers and out of your eyes and stuff until you were just a big bundle of teeth

Good question...

Wore 3-4 years a brace, still needing a retainer once in a while. Shark-like properties would be nice. Regrowing this shit without problems in no time.

Some tumors actually do this

Median estimate: around 10 years from now.

This is the current answer for >90% of 'when will we get x?' questions where x is the cure for a human disease / ailment.

Not really, most of these questions are about aging or cancer
>>

I often wanted that. Maybe if we eat enough shark its DNA can be incorporated in ours.

Maybe even feasting on its ovaries will speed up the process.

fund it!

Its already within the scope of technical capability. I just don't imagine there's much of a push for this type of stuff. Money talks, even in science.

As soon as i finish my studies

Got you covered boys

Dermoid cysts can contain eyes, teeth and hair.

Also this is what causes vaginal dentata

Yeah, dumb. You eat a plant, you gain it's powers. You eat an animal, you gain it's powers. It's called energy.
>>
>>7745243
Around the time we get nuclear fusion.
>>
>>7745256
this is most probably why no ones tried it yet.
>>
Not until you swim with sharks.
>>
dentists are weird and psychopathic imbecils, and imcapable of any scientific understanding or progress. they will never manage this.
>>
>>7745256
now imagine the new teeth grow and grow and never stop and they grow so large that they displace all the earth's atmosphere with solid tooth
>>
Stem Cells are the cure for everything desu.
>>
>>7746014
yes, for everything in the future
>>
>>7745755
relatively common ( very small chance ) of teeth growth in testicular cancer

by common i mean compared to other tumors

we are very close to teeth growth, and a phase III clinical trial has begun
