Puffer Fishes can help dental therapies? Yes you heard right, they can. Puffer fishes have tooth replacement system that is made up of four, which also makes up the beak structure. Scientists are trying to find out what genes or what makes them have a endless supply of teeth. When the scientists figure that out, humans will have a new way of replacing teeth continually. Puffer fish are bony fish and use a highly conservable process to form a beak like jaw that is made up of teeth in all vertabraes. Puffer fishes can be a new model to tooth replacements.
We can use this research to find how they do this amazing thing. Maybe one day we can do this to humans and make us have a endless supply of teeth, so we will never run out of teeth. When i grow old, i want to keep my teeth so i can chew my food. Since humans only can replace their tooth once, with this new research, we can find a way so we can replace our teeth more than once.
