Does Store-A-Tooth culture, expand, or differentiate the cells prior to cryopreservation?
No. Any of these processes can alter the characteristics of the cells and potentially limit their usefulness. In addition, these processes often include the use of animal products such as blood components from cows, which may make the cells unfit for use in humans.
Our lab has developed a new process specifically for handling dental stem cells. Our laboratory uses no animal products in processing dental stem cells and handles these tissues according to what the FDA refers to as ‘minimal manipulation’, in order to preserve the tissue in as close as possible to its original state - so it has the highest potential in the future if needed.
