Background:

Stem cells are found inside the soft living tissue. Dental pulp is the soft living tissue inside a tooth. Scientists have identified the mesenchymal type of stem cell inside dental pulp. Dental Pulp Stem Cells, or (DPSCs) are multipotent stem cells that have the potential to differentiate into a variety of cell types. There are various studies where the importance of these cells and their regenerative capacity has been demonstrated. Through the addition of tissue–specific cytokines, differentiated cells were obtained in vitro from these cells, not only of mesenchymal linage but also of endo and ectodermal linage.

Reason:

The regenerative ability of dental pulp stem cells make them a important field in the field of research. This review is a brief insight about dental pulp stem cells.
