Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Review Description
Research into finding the perfect replacement for lost dentition is an ever-evolving and rapidly advancing subject involving many scientific disciplines. The present consensus appears to be that regeneration of tooth in morphological and functional form is the ideal answer to lost tooth replacement. This article traces the milestones in this elusive search for the ultimate tooth replacement. The various research developments are highlighted that are aimed at the final goal of being able to “re-grow a natural tooth”. Whole tooth regeneration is technically challenging and further research into this field of complex molecular biology, embryology, biomaterials and stem cells is required to answer the unsolved questions. However, the milestones that have been crossed in the attempts at whole tooth regeneration have been remarkable and the future is quite promising. This article highlights the noteworthy research work that is being done in the field of whole tooth regeneration with a view to not only inform the clinicians of the significant developments but also inspire them to actively participate in this rapidly evolving field.
