Caveat emptor, says the ADA:
“There may be challenges involved in controlling the shape, location and number of regrown teeth. Because the research was conducted on animal models, its applicability to humans remains uncertain, as stressed by Dr. Erinne Kennedy from the American Dental Association.”

Well that only matter if you care about the shape, location, and number of teeth you start to grow out of your ~~eyes~~ ~~body~~ ~~head~~ mouth.
Apparently it targets the gene specifically for growing your teeth, so it should only grow your teeth where it was designed to.
