Traumatic fractures of primary molars: a case report

Bilateral complicated crown fractures secondary to chin injury: a case report

Traumatic injuries to the chin are not uncommon in children. Nevertheless, crown fractures, which are common sequelae to this type of injury, might be overlooked, especially if dental care is not sought immediately after a visit to a non-dental facility. The present case report reviews the delayed diagnosis and treatment outcome of a bilateral posterior complicated crown fracture affecting mandibular second primary molars in a young child. Pharmacologic and orthodontic considerations are also discussed in the paper.

Crown-root fracture of a lower first primary molar: report of an unusual case

Dental traumas are highly prevalent lesions in primary teeth, but crown-root fractures are seldom observed in posterior teeth of this dentition. The aim of the present report was to describe the diagnosis, treatment, and a 24-month follow-up of an unusual case of complicated crown-root fracture in a lower first primary molar of a 3-year-old boy.
