TY - JOUR PY - 2011// TI - Little boy black and blue JO - Pediatric emergency care A1 - Greene, Amanda E. A1 - Roosevelt, Genie E. A1 - Grubenhoff, Joseph A. A1 - Klein, Ulrich SP - 758 EP - 759 VL - 27 IS - 8 N2 - Tooth decay is common in US children, especially for children in low-income families. More than half of second-grade children have cavities. Therefore, root canal procedures are becoming more common in children. We report a case of a 2-year-old boy with a rare complication of a root canal procedure secondary to sodium hypochlorite toxicity. Sodium hypochlorite, a commonly used root canal irrigant, and its toxicity are reviewed.
