Stem cells can be preserved from wisdom teeth pulp without the inconvenience of an extra surgery or a longer recovery time. The procedure provides the potential use of regenerative medicine later in life. 

Amarillo Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery extracts the wisdom teeth and sends them to Stemodontics. Stemodontics extracts the stem cells from the wisdom teeth, then freezes and maintains them. In the future, should the patient need the stem cells, they contact Stemodontics and the company will ship them to the patient’s medical provider.

Stem cell therapies are being researched to treat conditions like Alzheimer’s, Crohn’s Disease and brain injuries.

The benefit of having this procedure done while the patient is young is that the stem cells have not been exposed to as many environmental carcinogens and other pollutants.
