Description
Manimekalai Muthusamy and co-authors review stem cell scaffolds for gum disease repair in a 2026 article. Standard care cannot reliably rebuild the bone, ligament, and cement lost to periodontal disease. Scaffolds seeded with stem cells from dental pulp or from fat offer a living route to coordinated regrowth.
Animal studies in the review show more new bone, cement-like layers, and ordered ligament fibres than scaffold-only controls. Blood vessel growth also improved in the treated defects. Early clinical reports add shallower probing depths, gains in attachment, and good safety. The authors caution that standard protocols and long-term data are still thin, so firm clinical claims must wait.
