[Advances and prospective application of stem cell technique in stomatology].
In this paper the background and advances of stem cell technique in stomatology were reviewed, especially the lately research of repair of maxillofacial defects with bone marrow stem cells, repair or reconstitution of teeth with dental pulp stem cells and repair of other tissues such as parotid with embryonic stem cell. Stem cell technique provides a new choice and extensive prospect of application for stomatology, therefore, deserves further research.
