Abstract

Stem cells SC are biological unspecialised cells with tremendous ability to change into diverse types of specialised cells based on need, which have the power to divide into other stem cells or specialised cells like bone cells, muscular cells, and periodontal ligament cells. The aim of this study was to deal with regeneration ability, the changing ability of stem cells into bones, muscles, tooth buds, fatty tissue, and ligaments, and how these abilities are useful in prosthodontics fields. Research-related articles from 2010-2023 participated in this review, and it had been found that the uses of stem cells in dentistry are highly spread due to their ability to become diverse types of dental cells that could be used to regenerate a block of jaw.
