  ABSTRACT: In adults, dog bites to the upper extremity are common, but retention of the tooth after the bite is a rare occurrence. Foreign bodies can become embedded in the tissue after a penetrating injury and may not be evident upon the initial physical exam, potentially leading to infections and other local or systemic consequences. Various imaging modalities have been recommended for the localization and diagnosis of foreign bodies, depending on the nature of the foreign body and available facilities. We present a rare case of a retained tooth in the distal forearm after a stray dog bite. This case highlights the importance of radiographic evaluation in the context of penetrating animal bites.
