Abstract
Stem cells represent only a small percentage of cells that constitute each tissue but are the only cells with self-renewal capacity, ability to grow in vitro, in a laboratory, under a given environment, and to produce different cell types. These properties have led many researchers to come up with regenerative medicine to replace the lost tissue structure, with a mad rush to isolate the stem cells. Oral cavity is found to be one such place to harbor plenty of stem cells with ease of isolation and has attracted lot of clinical and research interest. This short review is to brief the stem cells in general and its relevance in oral cavity.
