The present case report highlights about management of taurodontism which is a developmental anomaly characterized by the lack of constriction at the level of the cementoenamel junction, vertically elongated pulp chambers and apical displacement of the pulpal floor. Permanent molar teeth are commonly affected teeth. Its morphology might hamper the location of orifices and can create difficultie...

Taurodontism is a morphologic feature of generally multi-rooted teeth with large pulp chambers and shortened roots. A case of endodontic treatment in a 24-year-old male with the chief complaint of swelling and pain in the right mandibular region is described. Periapical lesion was present in the radiographic examination of hypertaurodont second mandibular molar.Four root canals were detected wi...

Ellis-van Creveld (EVC) syndrome is a form of skeletal and chondroectodermal dysplasia, occurring with and without systemic involvement. Taurodontism of permanent and primary molars and upper posterior supernumerary teeth are rarely associated with this syndrome. A 5-year-old girl presented with early childhood caries and hypodontia. She had labiogingival adhesion, labiogingival frenulum hypert...

noonan syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder that is typically evident at birth. in many affected individuals, this syn­drome is associated with cardiac defects and a distinctive facial appearance. the high frequency of cardiac disorder, oph­thalmic, growth and orthopedic signs, associated with noonan syndrome emphasizes the need for early diagnosis. this re­port aimed to present a 19 year...

Root canal anatomy diversity and aberrations are common especially in permanent dentition. A thorough understanding of the basic root canal anatomy and its diversities are necessary for successful endodontic treatment. Mandibular second premolars are usually single-rooted and have one root canal. Incidence of three separate root canals in this tooth is quite rare and taurodontism with three sep...

Dental anomalies are the formative defects caused by genetic disturbances or environmental factors during tooth morphogenesis. Simultaneous occurrence of various multiple anomalies has been reported previously, particularly in cases of chromosomal abnormalities that often manifest with multisystem involvement. Very few cases of multiple anomalies have been documented in patients with no known g...

Dens invaginatus is a tooth malformation resulting from an infolding of the dental papilla at the time of tooth development. The deep infolding of enamel and dentin are seen in the affected tooth. Maxillary lateral incisors are commonly affected tooth and bilateral occurrence is rare. It shows a broad spectrum of morphologic variations and it usually results in pulpal necrosis. Root canal thera...

BACKGROUND AND AIM: Dental anomalies are typically detected in radiographic screening. The present study was conducted with the aim of investigating the dental anomalies found in panoramic radiographs taken from the study population in Ardabil, Iran, in 2015-2016.METHODS: The present study was conducted on 1800 panoramic radiographs obtained from 799 men and 1001 women in the Radiology Departme...
