Abstract

Easy and quick isolation of the most primitive stem cell populations from available tissues is warranted for tissue engineering. The most reliable cell source for dental tissue engineering is that of autologous pulp stem/progenitor cells isolated from deciduous or primary teeth. The ease of isolation and high expansion potential in vitro has made them very attractive as a model system for many researchers.
