Résumé

Introduction : Ces dernières années, le Cone Beam (CBCT) a investi le champ de la médecine orale. Grâce à sa précision en trois dimensions et à sa faible irradiation, il constitue un très bon examen complémentaire, notamment pour les cas complexes en traumatologie pédiatrique.
Observation : Une fille de 4 ans a consulté après un traumatisme du maxillaire supérieur. Elle avait des douleurs intermittentes et une inflammation gingivale. L'examen clinique a montré une légère version palatine des dents 51, 61, 62 et une absence d’inconfort occlusal. Pourtant la palpation de la paroi osseuse a révélé une protubérance indolore et immobile face à la racine de la dent 62. L'imagerie bidimensionnelle (radiographie à long cône, orthopantomogramme) n'a rien révélé. Un CBCT a été effectué. Les coupes sagittales passant par les dents antérieures maxillaires ont révélé une position subnormale des dents 51 et 61. L’examen a révélé que la racine des 62 avait traversé la paroi alvéolaire vestibulaire après l'avoir perforée. Le début de consolidation de la nouvelle position des dents nous a conduit à réévaluer la situation une semaine plus tard. Lors du rendez-vous de contrôle, la persistance de la douleur et la mobilité affectant la nutrition nous ont conduit à retirer les dents traumatisées et à proposer une prothèse pédodontique.
Discussion : Même s'il est moins utilisé chez les enfants, le CBCT permet d'obtenir des informations fiables et de qualité avec de faibles risques pour une prise en charge optimale. Cependant, la limite de réalisation de cet examen reste conditionnée par le comportement de l'enfant.

Abstract
Interest of cone beam in pediatric dentistry, about a case report of traumatology

Introduction: Last years, Cone-Beam CT has invested oral medicine. Thanks to the 3-dimensional precision it provides and its low irradiation, it is an excellent complementary examination for complex cases in pediatric traumatology.
Case report: A 4-year-old girl has consulted after a trauma affected the upper jaw. She had intermittent pain and gingival inflammation. The clinical examination has shown a slight palatal version of the teeth 51, 61, 62 and an absence of discomfort to the dental occlusion. Yet the palpation of the bone wall has revealed a protuberance painless and immobile opposite the root of the tooth 62. Two-dimensional imaging (long cone x-ray, orthopantomogram) has revealed nothing. More important investigations have been implemented. A CBCT has been made. The sagittal sections through the maxillary anterior teeth have revealed a subnormal position of the teeth 51 and 61. It has shown that the root of the 62 had passed through the vestibular alveolar wall after perforated it. The beginning of consolidation of the new position of the teeth has led us to reevaluate the patient a week later. During the supervisory appointment, the persistence of pain and the mobility affecting the nutrition has led us to remove traumatized teeth and to propose a pedodontic prosthesis.
Discussion: Even if it is less used for children, the CBCT nevertheless allows to obtain reliable and high-quality information with low risks for optimal care of children. However, the limit of realization of this examination remains conditioned by the behavior of the child.
