Summary

This study tested a new way to rebuild lost jaw bone using a patient's own stem cells mixed with a 3D-printed scaffold. Seven adults with missing teeth in the front of the mouth received the treatment. The goal was to see if this approach could safely create enough new bone to support dental implants.
