teeth health smile dentist babyBaby teeth should not be discarded after they have fallen off. They should be preserved for the future since they are a good source of stem cells.

– Having baby teeth stored in a tooth bank eliminates the need to wait for a bone marrow donor and increases the likelihood of acceptance of the tooth derived stem cells.

– There are a number of services that your dentist can recommend to cryopreserve stem cell from baby teeth at a fee.

As stem cells age, they become less powerful. If your child needs stem cells as an adult, the teeth that currently live in their mouth will no longer be very useful.
