Initially, teeth were extracted from a child and parent hybrid canine mandible region and bone marrow (canine mesenchymal stem cells; cmscs), and parent teeth (canine dental pulp stem cells; cdpscs), and stem cells were extracted from deciduous teeth (puppy deciduous teeth stem cells; pdtscs). After 4 weeks, bone defects were prepared on both sides of the mandible with a trephine bar. Graft materials were implanted into these defects: 1) control (defect only), 2) plateletrich plasma (PRP), 3) cmscs/prp, 4) cdpscs/prp, and 5) pdtscs/prp to investigate the effect of stem cells. The newly formed bones were evaluated by histology and histomorphometric analysis in the defects at 2, 4, and 8 weeks. According to histological observations, the cmscs/prp, cdpscs/prp, and pdtscs/ PRP groups had well-formed mature bone and neovascularization compared with the control (defect only) and PRP groups at 4 and 8 weeks, respectively, and the mineralized tissues in cmscs/prp, cdpscs/prp, and pdtscs/prp specimens were positive for osteocalcin at 8 weeks. Histometrically, newly formed bone areas were 19.0 ± 2.9% (control), 19.7 ± 6.0% (PRP), 52.8 ± 3.5% (cmscs/prp), 61.6 ± 1.3% (cdpscs/ PRP), and 54.7 ± 2.2% (pdtscs/prp) at 8 weeks. There were significant differences between cmscs, cdpscs, pdtscs/prp, and control and PRP groups. These results demonstrate that stem cells from deciduous teeth, dental pulp, and bone marrow with PRP have the ability to form bone, and bone formation with DTSCs might have the potential to generate a graft between a child and parent. This preclinical study could pave the way for stem cell therapy in orthopedics and oral maxillofacial reconstruction for clinical application. Key words: Tissue engineering and regenerative medicine (TERM); Tissue-engineered bone (TEB); Dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs); Deciduous teeth stem cells (DTSCs); Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs); Newly formed bone area INTRODUCTION concept is to regenerate tissues using three elements stem cells, scaffolds, and signal molecules and it is thought that the role of stem cells is most important. Recently, embryonic stem cells (ES cells), induced pluripotent stem cells (ips cells), and somatic stem cells have been reported; however, ES and ips cells have many issues to overcome for clinical use because of eth- ical and safety problems, immunorejection, and tumorigenesis. Somatic stem cells, especially mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) isolated from various tissues, including bone marrow, adipose tissue, skin, umbilical cord, and placenta (7,17,26,28), have been used in clinical applications. We have used bone marrow-derived MSCs (BMMSCs), instead of autogenous bone grafting, in Bone defects often occur from tumor resection, congenital malformation, trauma, osteoporotic fractures, surgery, or periodontitis, and autogenous bone grafting has been the gold standard approach to treatment. However, severe invasiveness with attendant donor site morbidity and complications is not the only issue, as there is also a limited supply of autogenous bone. On the other hand, tissue engineering and regenerative medicine (TERM) using stem cells, which are of benefit from the viewpoint of reduced hospital stay, morbidity, and immune reactions, is a tool in a new clinical platform for a whole spectrum of intractable diseases.
