Abstract

Foreign bodies in the oral and maxillofacial region are frequently caused by trauma. We describe a 7-cm-long, glass foreign body lodged in the left buccal region of a 2-year-old girl, who visited our clinic 3 months after injury. At presentation she had a granulomatous tumor at the left angle of the mouth and a glass-like radiopaque object was discovered on a dental X-ray film. We removed the object through an extraoral approach.
