Scientists just grew real human teeth — and they erupted like baby teeth, root and all

A child in a Tokyo clinic was born missing two adult teeth. No implants. No dentures. Just gaps — until doctors injected stem cells into their jaw.

And months later, something extraordinary happened:
real teeth started growing.

Japanese scientists have created a stem-cell treatment that triggers the natural regrowth of human teeth — complete with enamel, dentin, nerves, and a working root system. Not synthetic. Not glued in. Grown — from the body’s own blueprint.

The secret lies in a gene called USAG-1, which normally suppresses tooth formation. By disabling that gene and injecting specific growth factors, researchers were able to “unblock” dormant tooth buds that had never developed — effectively restarting the process from scratch.

The result? A new tooth, erupting just like a child’s first molar — painlessly, and in the exact right position.

In animal trials, the treatment restored missing teeth in dogs and ferrets. In humans, clinical testing has already begun — and early results suggest the future of dentistry might involve no implants at all.

We’re not repairing teeth anymore.
We’re rebooting them.

Did you know?
Skittles and jellybeans get their glossy shine from something unexpected: crushed insect cocoons!

The coating comes from shellac, a resin secreted by the female lac bug, found mainly in India and Thailand. It’s processed and used in foods, pharmaceuticals and even furniture polish.

It’s safe to eat, but if you’re vegan or trying to avoid animal-derived ingredients, it’s something to keep an eye out for on labels.

Food facts can be wild sometimes 🍬🐞

ARMY ANT SUTURES 🪖🐜

In some cultures that dont have access to medical supplies or care, army ants have been used to stitch up wounds.

They have a powerful bite that is strong enough to clamp the wound. Their heads are left, holding the stitching in place.

Army ants also have saliva that contains antibacterial properties, preventing infection.

It is incredible what God has provided for us in His creation.

POLONIUM: SOLID PROOF THE EARTH WAS FORMED WITHIN MINUTES

Scientist Robert Gentry made a remarkable discovery many years ago. When examining granite rocks, a makeup of the Earth's crust, he found that they contained Radiohalos, which are a remnant of the element Polonium.

Evolutionists believe the Earth was once hot magma, and the magma cooled and became the Earth's crust over billions of years. The magma would have burned up the Polonium, so therefore, the Earth did not form this way. A half life of the element Polonium-218 is 3 minutes.. Meaning the Earth itself was formed in less than 3 minutes!

If you're an old earth creationist or secularist, I urge you to take a serious look at this. It did not take God millions of years to create the earth. There's more information below. To date, there has been NO good explanation from non-believers when it comes to this evidence.

You might have a hard time seeing it, but this is a lichen katydid. It is almost identical to the lichen it hangs around. It has no idea what it looks like and has no way to control what it looks like. It took an Intelligent Creator to give it what it needed to blend in and stay hidden from another hungry predator.

Get ready for some science fun with the Fizzing Hands Experiment! Watch a bubbling explosion as we combine simple ingredients. 🎉🧪

Ingredients:
- Wide Mouth Jar
- 3 Tablespoons ARM & HAMMER Baking Soda
- 1/4 cup Vinegar
- Liquid Dish Soap
- Vinyl Rubber or Plastic Glove
- Food Coloring
- Spoon
- Paper Clip
- Rubber Bands
- Baking Sheet or Tray
- Safety Glasses or Goggles

Directions:
1. Start by placing your wide mouth jar on a baking sheet or tray—this will catch all the excitement!
2. Pour in 1/4 cup of vinegar, add a generous squeeze of liquid dish soap, and drop in a few drops of food coloring for that extra pop. Give it a gentle stir with your spoon and set it aside.
3. Adults, it's your turn! Use the pointed end of a paper clip to poke holes in each fingertip of the glove.
4. Shake 3 tablespoons of ARM & HAMMER baking soda down into the glove’s fingertips.
5. Carefully place the open end of the glove over the jar's top, making sure not to spill any baking soda just yet! Secure it with rubber bands around the base.
6. Time to take the tray and jar outside—trust me, you don’t want this happening indoors.
7. Gently lift the glove to pour the baking soda into the jar, swirl everything around, and stand back to enjoy as the fizzing reaction sprays out from the fingertips!

Get ready for some giggles and gasps—this explosive science project is sure to be a hit!
