Unlike man-made implants, which might not fit the body perfectly, regenerated teeth could grow and function just like the original ones. That means they’d be stronger, more durable, and longer lasting. The technology is still in its early stages. Experts need to figure out whether it’s more effective to grow teeth directly inside the mouth or implant them after they are fully developed. Today, with so many photos shared on social media, people are more conscious of obtaining a perfect smile. Thanks to this new research, future dental treatments may offer a natural way to achieve a healthier, more confident smile.
與可能無法完全契合身體的植牙不同，再生牙齒能夠像原先的牙齒一樣生長並發揮作用。這意味著它們會更堅固、更耐用，且能維持更久。這項技術目前仍處於初期階段。專家需要弄清楚，究竟是在口腔中直接培養牙齒更有效，還是等牙齒完全長好後再進行移植比較好。如今，有這麼多照片被分享在社群媒體上，人們更加在意獲得完美的笑容。多虧了這項新研究，未來的牙科治療或許能提供一種自然的方法，幫助人們獲得更健康、更自信的笑容。
