disclamer... On pain killers and nausea meds.
I know i have read about WTSC. I cant remember is it was hear. Or if it could possibly help kidneys. I asked oral doc what he thoughts he didn't know much and put them in saline. I asked others to do some research, we put them in the freezer. i am hoping someone can quickly refer me to a thread, link, or organization w phone no.

Teeth have been used to extract dna where the root is, but if the wisdom teeth are infected when removed, then I would not want to use that is my thinking. Howver there are easier ways to get stem cells than paying a monthly fee to store wisdom teeth.
I don't remember seeing the story hear, but will look for it due to curiosity.

im still curious, but i called my tx team and they seemed pretty clueless, as did my dialysis nurse. O well i have 4 frozen teeth and stem cells in my freezer. Maybe ill ration them out for dinner if we have a harsh winter.
i still cannot remember where i read that article. Thanks for the replys, and chris i will be sure to update u if i learn any thing.
