Organoids derived from stem cells demonstrate notable functionality through the secretion of proteins associated with tooth enamel. This method involves inducing the differentiation of stem cells, resulting in the formation of organ-like structures that emulate the natural progression of tooth development. The identified secretion of enamel proteins presents a propitious pathway for the advancement of bioengineered tooth generation, thereby contributing to the progress of regenerative dentistry.
