ABSTRACT Ectopic eruption of teeth into a region other than the oral cavity is rare although there have been reports of teeth in the nasal septum, mandibular condyle, coronoid process, palate, chin and maxillary sinus. Eruption of ectopic teeth in maxillary sinus usually is found incidentally on routine radiological investigations. We present a case of an ectopic maxillary third molar tooth with dentigerous cyst that caused chronic purulent sinusitis in left maxillary sinus.

Abstract Ectopic eruption of teeth into regions other than the oral cavity is rare although there have been reports of teeth in the nasal septum, mandibular condyle, coronoid process, palate, chin, and maxillary sinus. Occasionally, a tooth may erupt in the maxillary sinus and present with local sinonasal symptoms attributed to chronic sinusitis. We present a case of an ectopic maxillary third molar tooth that caused chronic sinusitis in the maxillary sinus. Citation Büyükkurt MC, Tozoglu S, Aras MH, Yolcu Ü.

Ectopic Third Molar

A dentigerous cyst or follicular cyst is a form of odontogenic cyst. It is believed that it forms during the development of the tooth and is associated with pressure exerted by the crown of an unerupted (or partially erupted) tooth on the fluid within the follicular space. Typically, dentigerous cysts are painless and discovered during routine radiographic examination. However, they may be large and result in a palpable mass. Additionally, as they grow they displace adjacent teeth. They almost exclusively occur in permanent dentition. The cyst is lined by stratified squamous non-keratinizing epithelium. About 70% of dentigerous cysts occur in the mandible and 30% in the maxilla. Dentigerous cysts associated with ectopic teeth within the maxillary sinus are very rare. We report radiologic and pathologic features in a rare case of infected dentigerous cyst of maxillary sinus arising from an ectopic third molar in a 21-year-old female patient.

Ectopic Third Molar

The maxillary sinus is a pneumatic space that, when inside it contains foreign bodies, can trigger infections or inflammations of different severities, causing the appearance of cysts, tumors or the development of chronic sinusitis. Imaging is essential for the correct diagnosis of the case, as well as surgical planning for the removal of the foreign body. The present work aims to describe a clinical-surgical case of a patient with an ectopic third molar in the maxillary sinus, emphasizing the clinical, radiographic characteristics, therapeutic conduct and surgical technique, as well as showing the importance of theoretical and practical knowledge regarding the subject. A 49-year-old female patient attended the university’s dental clinic for surgical removal using the Caldwell-Luc technique of the ectopic upper third molar in the left maxillary sinus. The surgical removal of the ectopic element in the maxillary sinus was effective in the case presented, preventing the patient from future pathologies that could affect the sinus, as well as the symptomatological reduction of sinusitis.
