Paediatric dentists encounter many emergencies in child patients and entrapment of foreign bodies in teeth is a commonly anticipated complication. It is more frequently seen in children with chronic carious lesions or due to teeth with wide open pulp chambers and pulp canals affected with caries or traumatic dental injuries. Here, we report a case of successful management of foreign body lodgement in the primary teeth of a middle childhood female patient along with a literature review of various foreign bodies identified in the past and some practical recommendations for the prevention of such incidents in the future.

Clinicians may come across strange situations when they accidentally notice foreign bodies in the root canals of the teeth. This foreign body entrapment is more common in children because of the habit of placing various objects into the tooth, particularly in the cases of open carious lesions. Sometimes, these foreign objects may act as an impending source for pain and infection. Even though accidental insertion is the main etiological factor, there are other possibilities such as self-injurious habits and dental neglect which should be ruled out by thorough history. The present article describes two cases of typical etiology for foreign body lodgment and its management in the primary teeth.
