We describe the case of a 14-month-old boy who was referred to the baby clinic of the School of Dentistry, Universidad Estadual Paulista, Araçatuba, Brazil, after sustaining a severe trauma that led to intrusion of the right primary central incisor. Radiographic examination 4 years after the trauma showed a developing morphological change in the germ of the permanent successor. On eruption of the permanent central incisor, a crown malformation along with enamel hypoplasia was observed. We concludethat radiographic follow-up is indicated after trauma to monitor possible sequelae in the permanent successors even before their eruption. © 2011 Canadian Dental Association.engcase reportcongenital malformationdeciduous toothenamel hypoplasiahumanincisorinfantinjurymalemaxillatooth crowntooth floratooth injuryDental Enamel HypoplasiaHumansIncisorInfantMaleMaxillaTooth AvulsionTooth CrownTooth GermTooth, DeciduousArtigoAcesso aberto2-s2.0-779576844842-s2.0-77957684484.pdf68443541499179570000-0002-8159-4853
