Unusual case of green pigmentation in human teeth resulting from neonatal hyperbilirubinemia
Suzana Sommer, DDS, Paulo Floriani Kramer, DDS, MS, PhD, Karina Magagnin, DDS, and Maximiano Ferreira Tovo, DDS, MS, PhD
Abstract:
Green pigmentation in teeth is an uncommon condition that is associated with bilirubin deposits in dental hard tissues. This article presents a case involving an 8-year-old girl with green teeth associated with intrinsic pigmentation by bilirubin. The reported case confirms the relevance of a medical history in establishing a diagnosis of green pigmentation.
