Abstract

Cells with unique capacity for self-renewal and potency are called stem cells. With appropriate biochemical signals, stem cells can be transformed into desirable cells. The idea behind this article is to shortly review the obtained literature on stem cell with respect to their properties, types and advantages of dental stem cells. Emphasis has been given to the possibilities of stem cell therapy in the oral and maxillofacial region including regeneration of tooth and craniofacial defect and recent Advances in Human Embryonic Stem Cell Research.
