Okay, but grow teeth WHERE?
Okay. I had a broken tooth removed and replaced with a titanium implant. What would happen to me if I took this drug?
Your bio-engineered tooth and cybernetic tooth would have to battle to the death.
Marvel could probably squeeze 3 main line entries and 5 side line ones. Maybe even an origin story comic book.
Like pokemon vs digimon, just in your mouth?
Like, if I had another tooth fail, would I be eligible for this treatment?
Well that’s certainly a game changer
That’s pretty awesome for some folks - my uncle had three sets of teeth, so the last set was extremely brittle. I’m curious if calcium supplements and this drug could provide an alternative to dentures.
Did you say your uncle had a third set of natural grown teeth? I always assumed everyone had two sets only.
No, some people have a complete third set. Some people only have a partial third set, or even have third teeth in just a few positions within the mouth. A dentist who told me about this said it’s a little rare, but not super rare.
Yes, they came in in his thirties, which was like 40-50 years ago. It hasn’t happened to anyone else in the family thankfully, though he himself never had kids.
I have a friend that recently showed me his third set of teeth coming in about a centimeter below where his regular teeth grew in.
If at all possible make sure your friend is talking to a dentist or orthodontist about that - they may need calcium supplements.
Are you, by any chance, related to sharkboy?
No, but I am related to Dolphin Boy. We fight for all Sea Labians!
I thought you said Sea Lesbians for a second…
Sea lesbians with multiple rows of teeth, remember
This picture was the first thing that came to mind.
This is still better than the alternative. Just ask Methany which she would prefer.
Even worse… what if… get this… hold on a minute… causes…
Vagina Dentata
World’s 1st drug to regrow teeth
Oh!
Vagina dentata
Oh. Uh-oh!
Wow. Queen of Wands, I don’t think I’ve looked at that for over a decade…
im sure this won’t end up with manmade horrors beyond my comprehension
Yay reddit humor.
im just doing my part to keep others from relapsing to the bad place
No wonder toddlers are so indestructible. They’re like 90% Teeth.
have you heard about teratomas? I think that’s exactly what you’re thinking of, except it’s natural
I mean those are weird enough but I’m sure someone’s gonna chug a bottle of whatever this stuff is made of and end up looking like a biblically accurate tooth fairy
Don’t Google vagina dentata
That movie was hilarious.
Oh, hell. Just those two words together made me flinch.
But then you miss out on catchy tunes like this
Wonder if we could somehow plan for them to grow in straight?
Lisa needs braces
DENNAL PLAN
Lisa needs braces-
So long, dental plan!
Looking forward to seeing this. It may not benefit me, hut I hope it benefits the future.
Well look at this person humble bragging their healthy set of teeth!
I have a bridge, so… no teeth there. Lol. They aren’t sure if it’ll work for people like me.
Their doing what???
They’re doing their job.
No, you don’t understand, this is only the beginning.
And it will cost me a kidney !
And will probably give you cancer.
Tooth cancer?

I could be crazy but I swear I’ve heard this a number of times before. It always seemed wonderful as my teeth tend to self-destruct. But nothing ever seems to come from it.
It would be nice if we just naturally grew a new set every 10 years or so but people with strong teeth would be quite annoyed at that especially if they had to do alignment.
My wifes nieces and nephew all had something (DNA? stem cells? Not sure, cant remember) taken by someone in the family who is working on this science to regrow teeth. He doesn’t seem to think its too far off last time i spoke to him.
I didn’t mean to imply it wasn’t possible. I have a relative that works for ITER. And similarly it’s possible but not in my lifetime i imagine.
It might seem silly to relate the 2 but it’s just a feeling… major applicable innovation seems lacking.
Also waiting on sodium-ion or glass batteries as well.
I’ve worked in dental in the past (assistant) and my brother has been sending me these types of articles since I started back in 2004. I always say something like “wild” or “amazing” but really NOTHING ever comes of it so I stopped actually reading what he sends me. It’s just a waste of time.
I’ll believe it when I see it
Thank you for confirming I’m not crazy. At least in that aspect. And also, as someone who has spent an insane amount of hours in that chair thank you for being a DA and dealing with us.
Honestly I was hoping crispr would take off more than it actually did come because I’d love to splice myself with the jeans of a shark and just get better teeth every time I lose a tooth
I am scared if it ever takes off - it will only exist for the rich.
We will soon have a world of CRISPR enhanced humans, and well… me.
Wasn’t crispr designed to be open source to avoid this problem?
And they shall call you The Denim Reefer
That would be amazing… imagine face planting from a stupid stunt and being like no biggie they’ll grow back. Works for kids and we already know from admittedly gross tumors the human body can grow hair and teeth. Just have to get them in the right place.
Also agree with the other comment to your post… crispr will likely be for the rich. Hell, it probably already is. A cynical view but i don’t sit at that table so who knows.
This is absolutely amazing! I have oligodontia myself and just the thought of being able to actually get those teeth back is pretty cool! I already have 3 implants - still have 8 more to go - but placing them HURTS… would be pretty interesting to see how far they’re in a couple of years.
Grow teeth…where?
Yeah, I assume that the side-effects of this drug might be “anal teeth” or something.
That’s bad. It’s bad enough that your teeth can hurt your husband’s penis during blowjob, you can have the situation during anal too???

Super excited for this. One of my adult teeth just never grew in. I tried to get an implant, but the lack of tooth also resulted in too little bone there to support the implant. I’m hopeful this would eventually allow me to have a real tooth there instead of my very fragile bridge.
Finally I can get my vagina dentata.
Pics
Every little girl’s dream. Heck, every boy’s dream, for that matter.
Could I get some in my ass to make a Play-Doh factory?
Bruh
You’re right. I will try to be more original.
We should pose as dealers and prank toothless drug abusers with tooth regrowth medicine
pls no
This is a good point. It says it will grow teeth, it doesn’t say where.
Im fine with that. Ill never need the poop knife again once my anal chompers come in.
Monkeys paw, you develop tastebuds there too.
DO NOT GOOGLE RECTAL TASTEBUDS - Or do. But be prepared to have your mind blown.
[Edit: seriously. Tastebuds are already there…]
deleted by creator
I actually wasn’t making a joke. The anus and testicles/scrotum both have tastebuds.
I guess if you like using poop for playdough… things would turn into a spaghetti press really quick…
