A rare case of palatal lesion caused by an embedded primary tooth root in an adult patient

Houriah Abdullah Almarshad, Nada Abdulrahman Almuhanna.


Abstract
Background: Palatal lesions involve a spectrum of pathological entities; approximately half of them are malignant. Exploratory surgery has been used in medical practice to reach the definitive diagnosis of many conditions. Retained primary teeth may result in a significant clinical complication.
Case presentation: A 21-year-old Saudi female presented complaining of an irregularity in her palate. Exploratory surgery was carried out to reach definitive diagnosis and treatment; 2 weeks recall showed improvement and a desirable outcome.
Conclusion: To our knowledge, there is limited scientific data regarding retention of embedded primary roots in the adult patient. Underlining the importance of reporting such cases, additional studies are needed to complement this topic.

Key words: Keywords: Palatal lesion, Palatal deformity, Remaining primary root, Deciduous teeth, Embedded root, Radiographic diagnosis, case report.
