Upon receipt, the Store-A-Tooth technicians will inspect your teeth for cell viability. Teeth that are not viable will be discarded, and you will not be charged for processing and storage. The Store-A-Tooth lab will send you an inspection report indicating the results as pass or fail.

If the sample passes the viability inspection, it will be frozen at a computer-controlled rate and stored in liquid nitrogen tanks. The process ensures the safety of your cells because progressively lowering the temperature keeps the cells from going into shock before reaching the storage temperature of -321° Fahrenheit (-196°C). The frozen dental stem cells are stored in tanks located in Store-A-Tooth’s constantly monitored, secure laboratory facility in Newton, MA.
