<h5>Once lost, teeth can’t regrow!</h5><p>Teeth are essential for us. They help us chew our food properly and even help us form words by controlling the airflow out of our mouths. Our pearly whites also contribute to a beautiful smile.</p><p>Sadly, once we lose our teeth, they can’t regrow. Yes, you might say that permanent or adult teeth come out to replace them once we lose our milk teeth. But that’s a one-time replacement.</p><p>Once we lose our adult teeth, they can’t regrow. So, we must take good care of them. But what if we tell you teeth can be regrown?</p><h5>Regrowing teeth - magic or science?</h5><p>No, it's not a Harry Potter spell that can regrow a person’s lost teeth. It has been made possible by science and modern medicine.</p><p>A drug has been developed by a team of Japanese researchers to help grow lost teeth. This drug targets a protein that suppresses tooth growth.</p><p>Blocking the protein using the drug can trigger bone growth, and, like magic, we can grow some brand-new teeth!</p><h5>Human trials are to begin soon!</h5><figure class="image"><img alt="Teeth Drug.jpg" src="https://storage.googleapis.com/newsahoot.appspot.com/Teeth_Drug_3c9e83eee6.jpg"><figcaption>A photo showing teeth regrowing in mice.

The human trial of the drug will start in the upcoming months.</p><p>The trial will occur at Kyoto University Hospital, Japan, from September 2024 to August 2025. Thirty males aged between 30-64 will be taking part in it.</p><p>After this, researchers will test the drug on those aged between 2 and 7, which will then be expanded to other people.</p><p>If the trials are successful, this medicine might be sold as early as 2030.</p><h5>Maintain oral hygiene!</h5><p>Yes, it seems like teeth-regrowing medicine might be available in the future. However, you still need to maintain your oral hygiene to prevent dental diseases like cavities.</p><p>You must brush your teeth at least twice every day. Always brush gently in small, circular motions. Do not scrub hard as if you are cleaning your plates. You must also brush all sides of your teeth.</p><p>Don’t consume excessive sugary foods and beverages, as they can cause tooth decay. You must also go for routine dental check-ups to ensure that your teeth are healthy. These are some steps to maintain oral hygiene.&nbsp;</p>
