Hate to even post about this because it makes me sick but research found that stem cells could be located in teeth and harvested. There are numerous research articles on this and it is practiced.

To add to Jem777, the younger the tooth the more potent the stem cells. A fruitful line of research may be one of analyzing the need for or shortages of human teeth for stem cell research and dental treatment. I have found dentisits in my community to be overly eager to pull teeth and replace with a tooth implant which frequently requires bone grafts from cadavers. I say, there are not enough willing donors to supply the needs of the medical industry which in turn fuels illicit trade in body parts.

Thanks for hitting me up @pizzalawyer. I wish we could all work together even when we don't agree or find evidence that oppose an earlier stated view. That is reasonable and in fact scientific. I am working on doing that more. It is hard when slurs and names are called and most people are trying to do the right thing.

I believe from the scientific study that I posted there is discussion about the stem cells that are available in different types of children's teeth, I.e. Molars, cuspids, etc.

They clearly have identified the most valuable teeth and process to obtain these stem cells. All indications this is from live children or at least recently alive children. This seems like a great area of further research.

I agree.
