@ethanschoonover The tooth regrowth trials are by Dr. Katsu Takahashi at Kyoto University Hospital. The subject must have intact dormant 3rd row tooth buds that can be activated, so if the former tooth was abscessed and took out the underlying bone and dormant 3rd row tooth bud, it won't work. (We are born with enough tooth buds to grow three sets of teeth, but one set of those buds stays dormant).
@badtux @ethanschoonover Wut?

@tsturm @ethanschoonover Sadly we are not like sharks, which can grow an unlimited number of sets of teeth. Wouldn’t that be cool?

@badtux @ethanschoonover I'd never heard that there's a potential third row of teeth.

@badtux @ethanschoonover This is the kind of nightmare I was waiting for. Thank you. My nights were too relaxing.

@ethanschoonover Given the state of things, I initially read that as a trial *in court*

Oh, my, yes. Every. Where.
Covered in thousands. Bottom of your feet even. Except none in your mouth and only tortilla chips and apples to eat. -

@ethanschoonover I know it's intended as a joke but that's honestly the exact main issue with the drug and trials they have to tackle
it's a gene you can switch, it'll just cause the body to start growing teeth again.. but even our natural set of teeth has overgrowth issues (wisdom teeth), so there's definitely a chance of accidentally getting another set of wisdom teeth-like issues
