A pplications of stem cell therapy in dentofacial regeneration and tissue engineering have received global attraction and attention in the last few decades. Cell therapy using a wide range of embryonic stem cells, adult stem cells from different tissues has been studied. These applications are ranging from tissue regeneration and engineering jaw articular joint, jaw bone, teeth, gum as well as dental pulp. However, challenges in isolation, identification, differentiation and use of these cells for treatment of dentofacial regeneration and tissue engineering, although have been extensively studied, their clinical application still controversial. This presentation will show contemporary cell therapy in different dentofacial applications of tissue regeneration and engineering, successes, challenges and future applications Also, the presentation will highlight cell modulations and use for these applications versus cell homing. In addition this presentation will highlight methods of cell homing, their efficiency and the molecular basis of cell modulation and/ or homing
