Abstract: Pediatric dentistry is an area within dentistry dedicated to oral health care for babies, children and even teenagers. The main focus of this specialty, as well as the focus of this work, is to promote awareness about the importance of creating healthy habits for children and maintaining the deciduous tooth in the alveolus until it is naturally replaced by permanent teeth. Endodontic treatment is usually proposed for two main causes: caries and dental trauma, which is very common in early childhood. The objective of this work was to carry out an endodontic treatment in deciduous teeth (51 and 61) and subsequent aesthetic rehabilitation of elements 51, 61, 52, 62 with composite resin. It can be concluded that the rehabilitation of the anterior deciduous teeth was extremely important from the aesthetic, functional and psychological point of view of the child. The use of maneuvers such as endodontics in deciduous teeth as well as the association of restorations with composite resins became a viable alternative in this clinical case, allowing the reestablishment of form, function and aesthetics.
