N2  - Recent changes in the law concerning air gun ownership have made air guns a topical subject and many have called for even tighter restrictions. A case of accidental injury during play with an air rifle is described. It highlights the dental and soft tissue damage that can arise from an injury from such a 'toy' and outlines its subsequent management. Clinical Relevance: This case highlights the problems that any dental practitioner may have to deal with when faced with the consequences of air-pellet injuries.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
