I think some of this old article got lost in translation. I had seen a similar older article that had this only causing kids with a genetic defect that prevented their 2nd set of teeth from growing out (this posted article said the trial is being done on 2 to 7 year olds), so I’m doubtful it will do anything for adults that lost adult teeth. I think the article I had previously read said as much.
this posted article said the trial is being done on 2 to 7 year olds
Huh?
Now, scientists will see just how similar, because humans will soon undergo a similar trial in September of this year. Lasting 11 months, this study will focus on 30 males between the ages of 30 and 64—each missing at least one tooth.

But are they missing a tooth due to a genetic issue? Or are they missing a tooth from losing an adult tooth, already?
Need a better source.
Here’s some of the earlier research on mice and ferrets: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.abf1798
