I actually heard this too.
I'm posting quick here, so I can't remember right now but there are a few more ways to recieve stem cells rather than from disgarded embryos.

It seems unlikely that There will be a more pluripotent stem cell then one taken from a embryo.  Also keep in mind, there isn't as much controversy in many places of the world with respect to research on embryonic stem cells.  In fact, I think it is in North Korea(not 100% sure), scientists are allowed to perform in vitro fertilization to make a embryo for the sole purpose of deriving stem cell lines.  So really, this babytooth stuff won't mean much as of now.   Still very interesting.
