Editor-In-Chief: C. Michael Gibson, M.S., M.D. [1]


Overview

An enamel pearl is a condition of teeth where enamel is found on locations where enamel is not supposed to be, such as on a root surface. They are found usually in the area between roots, which is called a furcation, of molars. Enamel pearls are not common in teeth with a single root.
