Abstract
Garre’s osteomyelitis represents a periosteal reaction to the presence of low grade infection or other irritants which can be odontogenic or nonodontogenic. This is a case report of an odontogenic periostitis in a 7–year-old _boy due to pericoronitis in relation to permanent mandibular left first molar. It was successfully treated by gingival curettage and antibiotic therapy.
