TY - JOUR PY - 2013// TI - Sodium hypochlorite accident in a pediatric patient JO - Pediatric dentistry A1 - Klein, Ulrich A1 - Kleier, Donald J. SP - 534 EP - 538 VL - 35 IS - 7 N2 - A sodium hypochlorite accident is a rare event in adults, but even more so in children. The purposes of this paper were to: report the case of a one-year, 10-month-old toddler who was treated under general anesthesia for early childhood caries, incurred a sodium hypochlorite accident following attempted pulpectomy in his primary maxillary central incisors, but made a full recovery without any sequelae after a typical four to six weeks course of disease; review the pertinent literature; and give recommendations on how to minimize the potential occurrence of such incidents.
