For teeth? The https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7880588/ Anti-USAG-1 serum.

It's laboratory antibody serum from a specific human-sourced monoclonal cell line. Seems to work on all mammals (notably both nice and ferrets; I'm told their teeth system is widely different evolutionary and that humans are kinda in the middle).

A human study should be ongoing on some children in Japan that for genetic reasons are missing a few adult teeth (never grew).
