2 cases of electrical burns of the oral cavity in young children are reported. Both cases were treated conservatively. 1 of the patients, now that 3 years have passed, has a slight scar with a slight deformity of lower and upper lips. We are planning reconstructive surgery within a short time. There are no functional or developmental disturbances. The main cause of electrical burns in young children is biting or sucking the free end of live extension cords or placing sockets into the mouth. Since most of these injuries are from low-voltage, electric circuits are localized to the surroundings of the mouth. However, the injuries are small or narrow, but reach much deeper than initially appear. Therefore, the scar may be small but the deeper tissue may sustain more extensive damage than expected.
