Parents who missed the chance to bank embryonic umbillical cord stem cells at the birth of their children now have another opportunity to save precious stem cells... collected from teeth!  Perhaps your family can benefit from the life-saving promise of stem cells.  Research is demonstrating advances in the treatment of a wide variety of health conditions, including diabetes, heart disease, leukemia, multiple sclerosis, brain injuries, Parkinson's disease, Crohn's disease, and periodonal disease.  The National Institutes of Health has discovered a powerful class of adult stem cells in teeth.  Interested parents can ask for a customized plan for their child.  Our office has collection kits from StemSave (www.stemsave.com) to send baby teeth, wisdom teeth, or orthodontic extractions to be used for this valuable purpose.
