Abstract
Green pigmentation of teeth is uncommon but, when it occurs it is a cause of anxiety to the child and family. It also causes the child to lose self-esteem and increases social issues for the family. The purpose of this paper was to present the management of 2 unrelated patients who presented with green primary teeth following sepsis-induced liver dysfunction and hyperbilirubinemia in infancy.
