Abstract

Inhaled foreign bodies can be a life-threatening emergency and requires immediate intervention. We report a 40-year-old man who came to the ER complaining of chest pain and cough. He had lost his dental prosthesis. Chest X-Rays showed two foreign bodies, one at the intermediate bronchus and the other at the left posterior basal segmental bronchus. By fibrobronchoscopy, porcelain fused to a metal dental Crown of six teeth was extracted from the right side, and a cast of metal from the left side
