I’ve been hearing about re-growing teeth for 20 years. Still nothing. It’s right up there with nuclear fusion.
Cold nuclear fusion. We were quite successful with the hot kind, uncontrolled.
I mean, we can make fusion happen, but it’s not exactly useful outside of turning things into not things anymore.
That’s what they said…
Not just cold fusion. We are still working on creating hot fusion reactions that are controlled. That honestly makes sense. It’s kinda weird that we were able to theorize the uncontrolled reaction of fission, and then used that to create a mostly kinda stable controlled fission reactor.
Swear articles like this get pushed every few years. Let me know when it’s a reality I can get at my local dentist.
It’s the same study that’s been in process for about a decade. It entered human trials last year with those trials expected to take 5 years. Growing teeth is slow. It’s not really being pushed, it’s just the same reliable hit for various news sites to break out on slow news days.
If you only care about technology that’s commercially available, why are you on the technology community?
Just to annoy you, is it working? I hope so.
Maybe they care about other technologies that aren’t constantly just a couple years away?
I get the best biomedical research news from Popular Mechanics.
Popular mechanics is a terrible source. They post click bait trash like this on a consistent basis.
They’ve been doing it since before clickbait was even a thing!
No they won’t.
This is the same as “humans may live on a mara colony in 10 years!”
No they won’t, not even close.
This article is bullshit and so is the entire site, it’s all djinn economy, all wishes and fantasy with a clickbait header to make sure you go there to watch the ads to make them money.
Popular Mechanics wrote an article saying exactly this same thing like 10 years ago.
Did they? I can’t find it.
It may have been Popular Science, the other side of the same rag coin.
inb4 teeth growing in the most wrong and least expected places
A new, horrible torture method just dropped.
For some reason just thought of teeth in the pussy. Anyway just sharing here cause sharing is caring.
Theres literally a whole movie about this called Teeth.
Better than growing a tongue in your asshole.
Makes me wonder if each poop have distinct flavor lmao.
This is my main concern. I will believe they can regrow lost teeth, but can they regrow them in the correct shape and location? Teeth can take some weird shapes. We’ve got millions of years of evolution tweaking exactly where and how they grow, and it still goes wrong sometimes. I suspect messing with that process can lead to Cronenbergian results.
They call her the iron maiden
Correction: rich humans
Everything is expensive at first, before getting cheaper in the long rub
yeah except all the things getting more expensive year after year
Like cars? Televisions? Home appliances?
Like dental care
How about sticking to the actual topic: Medicine and dentistry.
Getting a basic filling in 1925 versus the same procedure in 2025.
Regardless of who pays (government, the patient, insurance, etc) which would be more expensive?
By the way:
Basic Model T price in 1909: $825 or $30,000 today.
Basic sedan price in 2025: $30,000
Average price of a car in 2025: $50,000
Cost of model T in 1913: $14,000
Cost of model T in 1916: $9,000
See how the price went down after its 1909 release ? 😁
Find me a new car for $9,000 in the modern day.
Motorcycles can be around that price. Even new.
Rich humans. Us peasants won’t be able to.
Nah. Because
Sweet dreams.
The reason toddlers have such cute chubby cheeks… because they’re chock full of teeth :D
Okay but… what kinna teeth we talkin…? Any teeth?
I’d kill for some sharper canines lol
like this?beware of fanged girls. also, beware of idols. especially, beware of fanged idols.
Yes.
Mine are so sharp the dentist asked if I wanted them dulled a bit. I of course told him to leave em sharp!
Depends on your attack profile and what you’re biting: do you want slash, stab or crush damage?
Shark mouth
And only the fucking rich can afford it. You forgot that part in the title.
Can they make it stop too? Not taking any chances on this.
Hopefully not, iv always wanted the powers of a rat!
Grow them… where?
…toe teeth!
Edit: my 100th comment!
But will I be able to schedule a dentist appointment in four years?
Nothing new in this article, it’s just rehashing stuff that’s already been announced and talked about since last year.
