Taurodontism is defined as the enlargement of pulp chambers with the furcation area being displaced toward the apex of the root of a tooth. It cannot be diagnosed clinically and requires radiographic visualization since the crown of a taurodontic tooth appears normal and its distinguishing features are present below the alveolar margin .

Taurodontism is a developmental disturbance of a tooth in which body is enlarged at the expense of the roots. An enlarged pulp chamber, apical displacement of the pulpal floor and lack of constriction at the cementoenamel junction are the ...

Feb 16, 2024 · Taurodontism is a dental abnormality where a tooth's body is enlarged and roots shortened. It can make certain dental treatments more difficult.

Taurodontism is a morpho-anatomical changes in the tooth shape in which the roots are reduced in size and the body of the tooth is enlarged. It is recognized as a clinical variant for almost a century. It has been found in the dentition of modern day races.

Taurodontism is an apical extension of the pulp chamber that increases its apico-occlusal height and displaces the radicular bifurcation closer to the apex of a molar tooth. Taurodontism may be unilateral or bilateral and predominantly involves the permanent dentition.

Taurodontism can be defined as a change in tooth shape caused by the failure of Hertwig's epithelial sheath diaphragm to invaginate at the proper horizontal level. An enlarged pulp chamber, apical displacement of the pulpal floor, and no constriction at the level of the cementoenamel junction are th …

A review of the literature on teeth with enlarged pulp chambers and apical displacement of the bifurcation or trifurcation of roots (taurodontism) and investigation of the association of this trait with X-chromosomal aneuploidy shows that: (1) ...

Taurodontism is a morphological anomaly involving multirooted teeth that is characterized by a vertical shift of the pulp chamber and shortening of the roots. The literature was analyzed to determine the impact of a diagnosis of taurodontism on dental treatment.

Aug 3, 2023 · Taurodontism is a condition where the teeth have larger pulp chambers than usual. Researchers have proposed theories to understand its causes. It can occur in different genetic syndromes and is mainly linked to a problem during tooth development.

Taurodontism is a dental condition characterized by an abnormality in the shape of teeth, particularly the molars, where the pulp chamber is enlarged and the roots are shorter than normal.
