I really want to deliver to patients the medicine that “grows teeth with a single injection administration,” which was created through Dr. Takahashi's research, and with the support of various people, our team has worked together to break through to this point. First, we want to help patients with “congenital edentulism,” a condition in which permanent tooth buds do not grow due to genetic causes, to grow teeth. Then, to be able to offer new treatment options to children and their parents who are found to be permanently edentulous. Finally, to be able to propose a treatment for patients who have lost their teeth due to tooth decay or periodontal disease that “grows teeth derived from its own tissue by injection. Toregem Biopharma will pursue the extension of healthy life span by “being able to bite with one's own teeth” and contribute to the realization of a healthy and affluent society for people around the world.
