Hypercementosis
Hypercementosis, as the name implies, is the buildup of excess cementum on the root surfaces. This deposition of cementum typically occurs within the apical third on posterior mandibular teeth and may give the root a 'bulbous' appearance. Though the appearance is unusual, the tooth is vital and the PDL space and lamina dura will remain regular and continuous around the areas of hypercementosis.
No treatment is necessary; however, extraction of teeth with hypercementosis may be more difficult due to the bulbous shape of the roots. 🦷 SHAFA DENTAL CARE 🦷
