Sublingual Traumatic Ulcerative Lesions Caused by the Eruption of First Primary Mandibular Molars: a Case Report

Traumatic ulceration of the ventral surface of the tongue is an uncommon condition in infants and toddlers, which is often associated with natal and neonatal teeth in newborns. The aim of this report is to present a case of bilateral ulcerative ulcers on the ventral surface of the tongue caused by t...

The aim of this report is to present a case of bilateral ulcerative ulcers on the ventral surface of the tongue caused by the eruption of first primary mandibular molars in a 14-month-old male child. The child was able to point to the lesions and also refused to consume certain beverages and foods, which favored an early diagnosis. Clinical treatment consisted of manual smoothing of the sharp edges of both mandibular first molars and a home regimen of lidocaine hydrochloride solution (Xylocaine®, Astra) and a steroid solution of triamcinolone acetonide (Omcilon ­ A, Brystol-Myers) for symptoms relief and lesion healing, respectively. Complete healing of both lesions and normal feeding were both observed at a one-week follow-up exam. Early detection of the lesions and parental compliance with recommended home regimens were key factors for a successful treatment outcome, since untreated cases of tongue ulcerative lesions may evoke feeding difficulties and failure to thrive. Although there are several reports of ulcerative lesions on the tongue caused by dental eruption, they are usually associated with the eruption of mandibular primary incisors (Riga-Fede disease).
