Your body already knows how to grow a brand-new tooth. It's just been told to sit down and stay quiet.
Scientists in Japan are trying to change that.
Researchers at Kyoto University Hospital have launched human trials for a drug that could make your mouth regrow real teeth — no implants, no dentures, no titanium screws.
The idea is weirdly simple. A protein called USAG-1 acts like a brake, keeping a hidden third set of tooth buds frozen in place your whole life. The drug releases that brake.
It already worked in animals. Mice and ferrets grew new teeth.
Now it's people's turn. The first phase is testing safety in 30 adult men, each missing at least one tooth. Children born without a full set of teeth are next in line.
This isn't on pharmacy shelves yet. The team is aiming for general use around 2030 — so "ending dentures and implants forever" is the goal, not the guarantee.
But for the first time, regrowing a lost tooth naturally has left the realm of science fiction and walked into an actual clinic.
The future of your smile might just grow back.

🚨 HOLY CRAP. The fraudster who is fleeing the FBI right now in Minnesota is named MOHAMMAD OMAR

Tech folks forecasting the end of white-collar jobs while at the same time clinging to foreign visa programs that utilize cheap labor.
Not hard to see why people view Big Tech unfavorably.
Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the Devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly hosts, by the power of God, cast into hell Satan, and all the evil spirits, who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.
🚨 BREAKING: In response to massive taxpayer fraud being found in South Florida, Gov. Ron DeSantis' administration didn't just COOPERATE with the Trump admin...
...they even asked CMS to BLOCK new Florida enrollments in a Medicaid program until the fraud is destroyed
THAT'S how it's done! 🔥
DR. OZ: "The state stepped up with a plan to go on the OFFENSE, requesting its OWN moratorium for Medicaid. That's the program that safeguards our most vulnerable."
"They want to slow down durable medical equipment suppliers too. That's how you respond when the system is being gamed. Governor DeSantis and his team are putting real teeth behind enforcement."
"They're tightening oversight, going after bad actors. They're making it clear that the free ride is over, and we're working side by side to make sure the safeguards are strong, not just on paper, but in practice."
"Because here's the truth, you don't beat fraud with talk, you beat it with coordination, with transparency, and with the courage to act."
This Colorado man was caught trying to meet a 14-year-old boy for sex.
There is an abysmal number of pedophiles in Colorado because they are often released on probation, even after raping their victim. Only 16% of felony offenders ever see a prison cell.
🚨 HOLY CRAP! Stephen Miller just said it loudly to Latin American heads of state, this is OUR HEMISPHERE, our adversaries and the cartels can screw off 🔥
"Not a SINGLE one of your nations should tolerate the existence of a SINGLE square mile of territory that is under the control of any entity other than the sovereign governments of your country!"
"We are NOT going to cede an INCH of territory in this hemisphere to our enemies or adversaries!"
"Our national security, our homeland security, the safety and well-being of our people begins at home, begins in our neighborhood, begins in our home region."
"And for too long, we have allowed foreign enemies, foreign adversaries, and enemy terrorist organizations to control territory and spaces in this hemisphere where they can project power, project threats, and directly threaten the lives of your citizens and our citizens."
"We are using hard power, military power, lethal force to protect and defend the American homeland."
"The idea that we would have in this hemisphere area that are under the physical control of foreign terrorist organizations, paramilitary organizations, is completely unacceptable!"
"The cartels that operate in this hemisphere are the ISIS and the al-Qaida of the Western Hemisphere."
