The world's first human trial of a drug that can regenerate teeth will begin in a few months, less than a year on from news of its success in animals. This paves the way for the medicine to be commercially available as early as 2030.

Looks like not having the tooth there triggers it to grow a new one.

  That sounds like an awfully broad target.

    Agreed. When I was a kid I have to have an extra tooth removed from the roof of my mouth. I wonder if it would grow back?

    I do not have teeth in my belly button and it seems most appropriate that way
