AB  - Recent exciting discoveries isolated dental stem cells from the pulp of the 
      primary and permanent teeth, from the periodontal ligament, and from associated 
      healthy tissues. Dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) represent a kind of adult cell 
      colony which has the potent capacity of self-renewing and multilineage 
      differentiation. Stem cell-based tooth engineering is deemed as a promising 
      approach to the making of a biological tooth (bio-tooth) or engineering of 
      functional tooth structures. Dental professionals have the opportunity to make 
      their patients aware of these new sources of stem cells that can be stored for 
      future use as new therapies are developed for a range of diseases and injuries. 
      The aim of this article is to review and understand how dental stem cells are 
      being used for regeneration of oral and conversely nonoral tissues. A brief 
      review on banking is also done for storing of these valuable stem cells for 
      future use.
