Hockey players, rejoice! A team of University of Alberta researchers has created technology to regrow teeth--the first time scientists have been able to reform human dental tissue.

I heard about this research several months ago. I was reminded of it yesterday when I went to the dentist to have a wisdom tooth pulled. Now my gum is a little sore. >_<;

I guess you are sore having your wisdom tooth pulled in the chair! It must have already grown in? Usually surgery prior to them emerging is a must....ouch!
