To date, the oral cavity has yielded a diverse menagerie of adult stem cells that includes dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs), dental follicle stem cells (DFSCs), stem cells from apical papilla (SCAP), stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED), periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs), and gingival mesenchymal stem cells (GMSCs). These stem cells have various useful applications in clinical dentistry that is dental pulp regeneration after root canal treatment, osseous integration of titanium implants, and maxillofacial and periodontal regeneration. Stem cells-based approaches in clinical dentistry are reviewed by D. Hughes and B. Song, as well as S. Miran et al. within this special issue..
