Scientists at Columbia University have engineered an anatomically-accurate human jawbone using human stem cells.
The second video is even more impressive than the first one for it is demonstrating work on regenerating bones, tissues and organs right within the body itself. It seems that, as one of the experts says, we need to give up on all ideas of what we thought was impossible…

My answer to that:
Not a moment too soon…
