Which isn't too unexpected. Having it as an IV treatment would mean it's not targeted. I don't understand how something like that could replace individual teeth that were damaged, and not just didn't grow because of a lack of something in the body.

If I had to guess (not being a toothologist), I'd think there would have to be some sort of injection, or implant, to trigger an individual tooth replacement.
