This sounds like the start of a horror movie where the drug works differently in some and they start to grow teeth where they don't belong like their eyes or feet. Not genitals, that movie already exists.

I had tried so hard to forget

What a wonderful phrase...

I had a similar thought and went looking for more info on how the drug is delivered, and if it's a matter of injecting it at the site where you want growth.

Didn't find the details though...

Says in the article it's a gene blocker. So a general injection into your bloodstream or other tissue is likely.

I honestly just had a much simpler, yet still frustrating issue.

on the same line of thinking (but slightly more serious). There are bound to be all kinds of issues but I would imagine some form of braces would help with any alignment issues

That already exists, it's called a teratoma. Google it at your own risk.

[–] DavidGarcia@feddit.nl 6 points 2 years ago (2 children)

teratoma did it before it was cool

[–] A_Random_Idiot@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yeah, but it also did it, like, in your lower abdomen.

This does it right in your mouth, where its supposed to.

[–] otter@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 years ago

Well those images are horrifying

[–] GreenPlasticSushiGrass@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Cool. I have a couple that aren't missing, but that I would like replaced.

I could go for an extra set of molars, for… chewing related reasons
