ABSTRACT

Neonatal hyperbilirubinemia is the most frequent diseases, which is characterized by jaundice in skin and mucous membranes, reflecting a temporary imbalance between production and elimination of bilirubin. Deposited throughout the body, after remission soft tissue disappears. However, in hard tissue, bilirubin permanently trapped; in these tissues lose their metabolic activity after ripening. When hyperbilirubinemia occurs during the development of deciduous teeth, serum bilirubin can be deposited in dental hard tissues and cause an intrinsic pigmentation green. There was affected in the permanent dentition. The case presented, a child of two years ten months age with a history of hyperbilirubinemia that was the primary dentition green as a result of the deposit of bilirubin in the dental tissues.
