“…The cause of the formation of a fistula in a dentigerous cyst has been thought to be the presence of infection (Gadre, 1962;Setiya, 1965;Agarwal, 1966), but in the present case no features of active infection were present and hence it was different from other reported cases of dentigerous cyst with oro-antral fistula. It is surprising that the infection had not ascended, even in the presence of a fistulous tract.…”

“…Bennett and Moore (1954) studied 29 cases of oro-antral fistula but did not find any which were secondary to dentigerous cyst. An extensive search of the literature revealed only two cases of dentigerous cyst with oro-antral fistula (Gadre, 1962;Setiya, 1965), and one case of dentigerous cyst with antro-cutaneous fistula (Agarwal, 1966).…”

“…An extensive dentigerous cyst may surround the tooth or root and a fistula, either antro-cutaneous,[4] or antro-oral,[5] can develop. Maxillary sinus abnormalities occur in asymptomatic individuals and only X-ray of the antra reveals a cyst or tooth or both.…”

Ectopic eruption of a tooth within the dentate region of the jaws is often noticed in clinical practice and is well documented in the literature. But the ectopic eruption into the non dentate region is rare and scantly documented. The maxillary sinus is one such a non dentate region, apart from nasal septum, mandibular condyle, coronoid process and the palate, to accommodate such ectopic eruptions of teeth. Due to its rarity and lack of consensus over its management, the incidence deserves to be added to the literature and discussed. Early surgical intervention for removal of ectopic tooth along with enucleation of the associated cyst, if any, is the treatment of choice.

“…The problem of a tooth or root in the maxillary antrum can be a perplexing one. An extensive dentigerous cyst may surround the tooth or root and a fistula, either antro-cutaneous, [16] or antro-oral, [17] can develop. Maxillary sinus abnormalities occur in asymptomatic individuals and only X-ray of the antra reveals a cyst or tooth or both [18].…”

Ectopic eruption of teeth in non-dental sites is a rare phenomenon; It may be symptomless but is more commonly associated with inflammatory symptoms. It can present in a variety of ways such as chronic or recurrent sinusitis, sepsis, nasolacrimal duct obstruction, headaches, ostiomeatal complex disease and facial numbness. The treatment of choice is surgical excision which is mostly carried out with Caldwell-Luc approach, even though endoscopic approach is being reported.
