Case Presentation: We describe a case of persistent odynophagia due to a retained foreign body 27 days after emergent intubation. Discussion: Dentures constitute a potential esophageal foreign body and warrant special consideration during airway management. Odynophagia, dysphagia, and changes in phonation should prompt consideration of retained esophageal foreign bodies, especially in the post-intubation setting.
