abstract

  • Oral and maxillofacial injuries occur frequently during the primary and mixed dentitions, although vertical, complicated fractures involving the crown and root of primary molars are rarely observed during early childhood. Treatment of this type of fracture can be complex, requiring both an early, accurate diagnosis and a precise treatment plan. The purpose of this report was to describe the management of bilateral vertical complicated fracture of mandibular primary first molars associated with trauma in a 2-year-9-month-old girl.
