Taurodontism

speak

Taurodontism is a dental anomaly in which the pulp chamber of the tooth is enlarged and the roots are shortened, resulting in a bulbous appearance at the apex of the tooth. In a normal tooth, the pulp chamber narrows as it extends into the roots. In a tooth with taurodontism, the chamber remains relatively the same width as it enters the root, creating a short, stout shape. This can affect one or more teeth, and can be seen in both permanent and primary teeth.
