Diagram of the main sources of human dental tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hDT-MSCs). Typical populations of stem cells that have been isolated and characterized from the oral cavity, including alveolar bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ABMSCs), dental follicle progenitor cells (DFPCs), dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs), gingival-derived mesenchymal stem cells (GMSCs), periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs), stem cells from the apical papilla (SCAP), stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED), and tooth germ progenitor cells (TGPCs).
