Launching from The Sun, four years ago a 6-year-old boy from Xi’an, China fell.
One of his teeth was dated but there were no marks on the ground.
But it was only discovered some time ago that the tooth moved into his nose.
It was known after the unnamed boy complained of pain in his nose.
In addition he also had difficulty breathing.
After being taken to the doctor, only then saw 2 cm sized teeth lodged in the nasal cavity.
Doctor Qin Xiaowen, a surgeon at the hospital the boy was aiming for, said:
“There is a solid object in his nasal cavity.
“CT confirmed that it was a 2 cm tooth.
“The family said the boy stumbled and fell when he was 2 years old.
“He lost one of his teeth, but they never found his whereabouts.
“They thought the tooth had fallen somewhere.”
The doctor who was stunned to handle the case added, the incident had pushed his teeth into his nasal cavity.
With only the root of his teeth visible in the boy’s nostrils, while the rest is under his skin.
The little girl underwent surgery to remove the tooth on June 22, 2020.
It is currently undergoing rehabilitation.
Wang Yanhui, head of the hospital’s ear, nose and throat department, called the case “very rare”.
A dentist from England added that, the case might occur.
But teeth don’t grow when lodged in the nasal cavity.
“It is possible for teeth to enter the nasal cavity or maxillary sinus if there is severe trauma.
