Hello,

I don't believe that the dentin forehead will be permanent. The bruising will increase in size and change colour as it heals. It can become greenish and yellowish as the hemoglobin changes and gradually go away.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Olgeta Xhufka, General & Family Physician
