It is possible toper form any dental procedure as long as the patient is controlled with values = 180 mg/dl with previous evaluation of the healing delay and risk of infection. A 15-year-old male patient was presented to the pediatric stomatology clinic of the Children's Hospital of Mexico Federico Gómez for revision in whom permanent dentition was observed with caries lesions and mismatched amalgams.
