Oral ulcers are one of the urgencies in stomatology; these are inflammatory injuries of oral mucous that have multiple etiologies. A clinical case of a disabled, female patient of nine years old was presented in this paper. The patient came with her parents to the emergency consulting room of Dental Clinic, Frank País municipality, Holguín province, on January, 2014 presenting an oral extremely painful ulcer of traumatic origin, extra less 15.5 mm of diameter and 5mm of depth in hard palate for dental loss and the decrease of the vertical occlusive dimension. A plate of acrylic   with one vestibular hanse was made for the treatment. The use of this splint enabled the relief of the pain, cicatrization of the ulcer and the recuperation of the vertical occlusive dimension. This alternative is recommended in similar situations.

Palabras clave : trauma; oral ulcer; acrylic plate.
