Endoscopic Removal of an Ectopic Tooth in Maxillary Sinus

Abstract: Ectopic teeth erupted in the maxillary sinus are rarely reported. Although the causes of eruption of a tooth into the maxillary sinus are unclear, some clinical conditions are suspected to be responsible, such as developmental disturbances (cleft palate), displacement of teeth by trauma, interventions or cyst, infection, genetic factors, crowding, and dense bone. Most cases of ectopic teeth in the maxillary sinus are asymptomatic and are occasionally diagnosed thanks to routine radiographic investigations.The … Show more

“…Furthermore, osseous resection would have been too damaging, and dangerous with poor eye contact. Endoscopic treatment is also suggested in the literature [10]. This procedure could not be performed in this case because the third molar was projected far away from the meatal complex.…”

“…The pterygo-maxillary fossa is laterally limited by the lateral plate of the pterygoid process and medially limited by the perpendicular plate of the palatine bone [10]: it is made up of a progressive gap down to the top of the tuberosity of the maxilla and the pterygoid process. It is thus to be differenciated from the infra temporal fossa, more superficial, medially limited by the lateral plate of the pterygoid process.…”

“…maksiller sinüs tavanındaki ektopik dişin çıkarılmasında olası enfeksiyonu ve sinüs obstrüksiyonu engellemek için endoskopik sinüs cerrahisi uyguladıklarını bildirmişlerdir. 20 Ayrıca maksiller sinüsün medial duvarında, özel-likle osteomeatal komplekste yer alan dişlerin uzaklaştırılmasında ise transnazal yaklaşım öneril-miştir. 21 Bu olgu serisinde ise ektopik dişler, tüm olgularda maksiller sinüsün tabanında lokalize olduğu için lokal anestezi altında Caldwell-Luc yaklaşımı ile çıkarılmıştır.…”
