A young child

Area of Science:

Pediatric Dentistry
Dental Traumatology
Endodontics

Background:

Primary teeth trauma is common in young children.
Calcific metamorphosis is a sequela of dental trauma.
Internal resorption is a pathological process affecting teeth.

Observation:

A 3.7-year-old patient presented with calcific metamorphosis of a maxillary primary central incisor.
The affected tooth subsequently developed internal resorption.
This presentation is rare in primary dentition.

Findings:

Calcific metamorphosis in primary teeth can be associated with subsequent internal resorption.
Early detection and monitoring are crucial for traumatized primary teeth.
Radiographic evaluation is essential for diagnosing these conditions.

Related Experiment Videos

Implications:

Clinicians must maintain a high index of suspicion for complications in traumatized primary teeth.
Long-term follow-up is necessary for children with calcific metamorphosis.
This case highlights the importance of vigilant management in pediatric endodontics.
