Abstract

A case is presented in which an overfilling of obturation paste (N-2) extended through the lingual alveolar plate of bone as far as the insertion of the mylohyoid muscle. Pain was associated with the omolateral lingual soft tissues and the cervical region. A lingual flap retraction allowed removal of the paste, and the pain subsequently disappeared.
