Taurodontism is anatomical and morphological alteration in the shape of the tooth. In taurodontism the crowns appear larger and the roots shorter compared to the normal anatomy of the respective tooth. The incidence of taurodontism in deciduous is very low and is also not very common in permanent dentition. The endodontic treatment protocol of taurodontic tooth is challenging. Taurodontic tooth requires a very cautious approach in identifying the root canal orientation and presence of any extra or lateral canals.
牛牙症是牙齿形状的解剖学和形态学改变。与相应牙齿的正常解剖结构相比，牛牙症患者的牙冠看起来更大，牙根更短。牛牙症在乳牙中的发病率非常低，在恒牙列中也不常见。牛牙症牙齿的根管治疗方案具有挑战性。治疗牛牙症牙齿时，在确定根管方向和是否存在任何额外或侧支根管时需要非常谨慎。
