Growth kinetics and characterization of human dental pulp stem cells: Comparison between third molar and first premolar teeth.

Background: Dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) play an important role in tissue regeneration. This study compares the growth kinetics and characterization of third molar and first premolar human DPSCs.

Material And Methods: Dental pulp tissues were isolated from human first premolar and third molar teeth and were digested by treating them with collagenase type I.
