Abstract

The pulp chamber size is very important to be known by a dentist. Anomalies can occur in the chamber of the pulp, called taurodontism. Second molar in mandible is a tooth that can experience taurodontism. This anomaly can affect the success in endodontic treatment. This research aims to determine the pulp chamber size on mandibular second molar in Mongoloid Malayan Race female population using biometric methods, and to compared the pulp chamber size between two regions of the mandible (right and left). Materials and Methods: this research was an analytical study with cross-sectional method. Samples obtained based on research criteria with a total sample of 104 panoramic radiograph. The pulp chamber was measured using biometric method and analysed using Chi-Square analysis. Results: prevalence of normal pulp chamber size was 62,5%, and anomaly (taurodontism) 37,5%. Statistically, the difference taurodontism in the second molar between the two mandibular regions (right and left) was insignificant Conclusion: taurodontism can be diagnosed by biometric methods on panoramic radiographs. Female may also have anomaly pulp chamber size (taurodontism) in mandibular especially in second molar
