摘要：
Tissue engineers working toward creating living replacement teeth take cues from nature as they coax disparate cell types to form a functional organ. Alternative methods include building teeth from existing dental cells or growing them from progenitor tissues. Both approaches have already produced structurally correct teeth. Remaining challenges include growing roots and identifying ideal raw materials for bioengineered human teeth, but progress has been rapid andtest-tube teeth may become the first engineered organs.
