You can not grow new teeth in adults. All humans will have 2 sets of teeth during their lifetime, one being the baby teeth which are lost during childhood and the permanent teeth which are stronger and supposed to last for the rest of your lifetime. If permanent teeth are lost then you may go to a dentist who will direct you to a specialist which will fabricate teeth for you.

Unfortunately no, your permanent teeth once lost are gone for good. If you knock a tooth out by accident your best bet is to push it back into place and get to the closest Oral surgeons office ASAP. If the person is afraid of swallowing the tooth, or is to young to respectively hold something inside their mouth put the tooth in a plastic baggy or dish with milk in it. Milk contains the closest bacterial safe haven for teeth besides the mouth itself because of it's amount of lactobacillus. Sometimes this works and the tooth can be saved but other times it fails.

Not currently, no.

At the moment humans only get two sets of teeth, milk (baby) teeth and adult teeth.

The alternative is a filling or false tooth/teeth.

However there is ongoing genetic research into the possibility of "re-coding" DNA to regrow lost teeth or develop a drug which forces teeth to grow. Don't get your hopes up though, it's not a well-funded research project.
