Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to grow extra teeth if you needed to? Well, someday it might be possible…
Scientists have isolated a single gene that regulates tooth growth.Mice without that gene were found grow extra teeth, much like how sharks develop several rows of teeth.
Those mice also had cleft palates, so this research might lead to ways to prevent that in humans.
