Abstract

Foreign bodies can penetrate soft tissues through open wounds, lacerations or through accidents iatrogenically. Among the commonly encountered foreign bodies encountered due to trauma are of glass, metal and wood in nature. We report a case of a 32 year old male who reported to our clinic, complaining of a small wound in the right upper cheek region intraorally since 1 month. Patient had a history of road traffic accident (RTA) 6 months back.
