Macrodontia is a condition in which any tooth or teeth appear larger than normal for that particular type of tooth. True macrodontia that involves the entire dentition is rare. It is more common that there is an enlargement of a single tooth due to a disturbance of morphodifferentiation. It should not be confused with either taurodontism (bull teeth) fusion (double tooth) or the jaws being relatively small giving the appearance of macrodontia. It is commonly associated with gigantism.
