Abstrakt: Sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), the most used irrigation solution is a reducing agent that is a clear, yellowish solution. Since hypochlorite is one of the most commonly used solutions in dental procedures, accidents are common. The report describes a case of sodium hypochlorite accidentally being injected into a 10-year-old girl instead of local anesthesia who was appointed for a pulpotomy procedure. The accident was followed by prompt management, which included a thorough lavage with a mixture of normal saline and local anesthetic injection. She was later kept under oral antibiotics and was followed routinely to find a well-healed region.
