    This is my main concern. I will believe they can regrow lost teeth, but can they regrow them in the correct shape and location? Teeth can take some weird shapes. We've got millions of years of evolution tweaking exactly where and how they grow, and it still goes wrong sometimes. I suspect messing with that process can lead to Cronenbergian results.
