Recently, tooth tissue engineering has attracted more and more attention. Teeth exhibit limited repair in response to damage, and dental pulp stem cells provide a source of cells to replace those damaged and to facilitate repair. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent stem cells which can be differentiated into a variety of cell types. The potential sources of MSCs for tooth regeneration mainly include stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHEDs), dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs), and stem cells from the apical part of the papilla (SCAPs), stem cells from the dental follicle (DFSCs), and periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs). As dental stem cells share similar properties with mesenchymal stem cells, there is also considerable interest in their wider potential to treat disorders involving mesenchymal cell derivatives. This review outlines the recent progress in the dental stem cells used in tooth regeneration.
