Deeply carious upper anteriors in children may pose a serious threat as the premaxillary region is considered the dangerous area of the face..This is because any infection in this region can travel from the deep facial vein through the emissary vein to the cavernous sinus..

The infection can spread by retrograde mode due to absence of valves in emissary veins
