Abstract

Aspiration of a tooth in facial trauma is a known complication. A complicated case of tooth aspiration with a compromised airway in a 28-year- old woman is described. The tooth was in the left main bronchus. A special technique involving flexible bronchoscopy, Fogarty catheter, and tracheotomy was used to extract the tooth.
