From teaching healthy eating habits to instilling strong values, you already do so much to prepare your child for a happy and healthy life. Banking stem cells may not be as obvious as saving for college, but it could mean just as much to your child’s future well-being and quality of life.For decades, doctors have harnessed the unique ability of stem cells to treat cancer and genetic blood diseases using therapies such as bone marrow transplants.

 

Today, over 1,700 clinical trials have been completed or are under way, demonstrating the use of stem cells to treat diseases, to heal injuries, and to grow replacement tissues like bone, cartilage, nerve, skin, muscles, and blood vessels.This exploding field of research holds the promise that your child, utilizing a toolkit of their own stem cells, will live a life of unprecedented wellness.

 

THE PROCESS IS SIMPLE

Banking is a decision you make before your child’s teeth come out. Once the teeth are out, Dr. SeGall will use a Tooth Transport Kit to safely and securely send them to the laboratory, where the stem cells inside will be processed. From there, the stem cells are frozen and stored in a cryopreservation facility, where they will be maintained until needed.
