Ectopic Deciduous Molar in Maxillary Sinus: An Extremely Rare Case Report

Ectopic eruption of teeth is a rare phenomenon, when teeth are found outside their regular site of eruption. This condition is quite rare in non-dentate regions such as maxillary sinus, nasal septum, mandibular condyle, coronoid process and the palate. The most typical symptomatic presentation of this condition is facial pain. Most of the reported cases of ectopic eruption are permanent third molars and only few cases of ectopic deciduous tooth have been reported in the literature. The purpose of this study is to report a case of ectopic deciduous molar tooth in maxillary sinus in a 13-year-old patient with no related signs and symptoms.

Ectopic Upper Third Molar in Maxillary Sinus: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Ectopic tooth in maxillary sinus is a rare entity. There are many causes of this condition include developmental disturbance, pathological process, iatrogenic, and in some cases there is no identified cause. The ectopic tooth could be asymptomatic or presented with various symptoms depends on its location. A 19-years-old woman presented with left-sided facial pain and slight swelling at the site of the upper 3rd molar tooth for three months. She gave a history of mid-facial trauma with an operation in this area, 11years ago. Orthopantography and computerized tomography confirm the diagnosis of ectopic tooth within the maxillary sinus. The tooth was removed by Caldwell-Luc procedure. The patient was remained free of the presenting symptoms at three months follow-up. Reporting any case of an ectopic tooth deserves the ability to know the various aspects of this condition. We reported a further case of ectopic 3rd molar tooth in the left maxillary sinus, most probably, due to previous mid-facial trauma or the surgery in this area.

Rare cases encountered in otolaryngology and head neck surgery

<p class="abstract">In our day to day otolaryngological practice we encounter many cases, some of which are very rare and worth reporting. We report very rare three cases seen during our practice: presence of tooth in anterior ethamoids causing chronic sinusitis, and NK/T Cell lymphoma (nasal variant) and An accessory submandibular gland. There have been few case reports which mentions about the presence of tooth in maxillary sinus leading to sinusitis but none mentions of presence of the tooth in anterior ethamoids leading to sinusitis. Extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma, nasal variant is a rare and aggressive type of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma that develops outside the lymphatic system especially in the nose. Accessory submandibular gland is extremely rare. This is the fifth case reported so far worldwide.</p><p class="abstract"> </p>

Endoscopic treatment of ectopic teeth in the maxillary sinus.

BackgroundEctopic teeth in maxillary sinus is rare and are usually removed via sub-labial trans-canine fossa approach (SLCFA). The aim of our study was to present our experience with extraction of ectopic teeth in the maxillary sinus via transnasal endoscopic approach (TEA). Material and Methods Rhinologists were asked to share their experience in the management of ectopic teeth in the maxillary sinus. Data were reviewed retrospectively. Results Eleven cases were reported in 10 patients from 2010 to 2019, six males and four females with a mean age of 33.5 +/-17 years (range 16 to 61). Seven patients complained of sinonasal symptoms, two were diagnosed incidentally during routine dental work-up, and one had oro-antral fistula. In eight patients, a cyst coexisted within the maxillary sinus. Teeth were located arbitrarily within the sinus. All cases were operated by TEA. One patient had self-limited periorbital emphysema, one had transient cheek numbness, and one had early post-operative bleeding that stopped after endoscopic cauterization. Long-term follow-up revealed good clinical outcomes. ConclusionsTransnasal endoscopic removal of ectopic teeth from the maxillary sinus is a feasible and rational approach when SLCFA is contraindicated. Key words:Ectopic teeth, dentigerous cyst, endoscopic sinus surgery, Caldwell-Luc.

Cone Beam Computed Tomography Application in Finding Ectopic Tooth: A Systemic Analysis and a Case Report.

BACKGROUND:Nowadays, cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) are commonly used in dentistry with an advantage about significantly lower dose comparing with CT-Scanner. Utilizing CBCT images which are indicated in dentistry like orthodontics can help diagnose diseases beyond dentistry field. One rare phenomenon can be seen in maxillary sinus, which is often overlooked by dentists, is ectopic teeth.CASE REPORT:This article describes one orthodontic case found accidentally an ectopic tooth in maxillary sinus by inspecting CBCT images.CONCLUSION:Dentists and oral radiologists should carefully inspect non-dental structures, like maxillary sinus, even its distance from the dentoalveolar region, especially in asymptomatic patients.

Ectopic Third Molar: A Hidden Cause For Maxillary Sinusitis—A Rare Case Report

Odontogenic sinusitis (OS) accounts for about 10-20% of all the sinusitis occurring in maxillary sinus. OS may result due to periapical pathology, severe periodontitis, peri-implantitis, or oroantral communication due to displacement of tooth root into the sinus. Very rarely OS can be due to an impacted tooth in the maxillary sinus for which very few case reports are found in literature. The author presents a case report of 24years female suffering from unilateral chronic sinusitis since 1year caused due to impacted third molar tooth in left maxillary sinus associated with odontogenic keratocyst that was managed both medically and surgically. One year follow-up revealed that she was free from previous symptoms.

Tooth in maxillary sinus, less than what commonly anticipated

The maxillary sinus can be a host of a wide range of different types of foreign bodies as a result of its size and the anatomical relation to multiple different skull compartments. Displacement of maxillary molars to the maxillary sinus can occur, although it is rarely reported and the incidence of such condition is still unknown. Most of reported cases in the literature of a tooth in maxillary sinus regardless of its etiology have symptomatic presentation. Different approaches can be utilized to manage such condition; however, surgical management by functional endoscopic sinus surgery is preferred given its advantages of better sinus aeration and less postoperative complication.

Ameloblastic Transformation in Dentigerous Cyst of Ectopic Tooth in Maxillary Antrum – A Rare Entity

Dentigerous cysts are commonest type of developmental, epithelial-lined, odontogenic cysts arising in the jaw from the crowns of impacted, unerupted or embedded tooth, most often third molar. But dentigerous cysts arising from ectopic tooth in maxillary sinus is quite rare. Ameloblastoma changes in the dentigerous cysts are rare and to the best of our knowledge have not been reported to be arising from ectopic tooth in maxillary antrum. In this article, we present the radiological diagnosis, clinical features and management of this rare case of ameloblastic transformation in dentigerous cyst arising from ectopic tooth in maxillary antrum.

Tooth in maxillary sinus

The pathogenesis of ectopic teeth is unknown, but it could be due to tissue interactions during tooth development. The causes can be multi-factorial. Ectopic teeth may be permanent, deciduous, or supernumerary. Maxillary canine and mandibular third molar are the most frequently involved tooth. Ectopic eruption of teeth other than the oral cavity is rare, but various authors have reported ectopic teeth in various facial region. Tooth in the maxillary antrum may cause local sinonasal symptoms. Water's view, panoramic radiography, and plain skull radiography are advocated for maxillary sinus pathology. Routine computerized tomography imaging is debatable. The standard treatment for an ectopic tooth in the maxillary sinus is a surgical removal through Caldwell-Luc procedure and recently functional endoscopic sinus surgery is gaining popularity. We report a case of ectopic eruption of maxillary right first molar in the maxillary sinus with the complaint of foul smelling discharge from the nose and surgically removed by Caldwell-Luc procedure.

OBJECTIVE: We report a rare case of ectopic unerupted tooth in maxillary sinus. CASE REPORT: A 23 year old female presented with oroantral fistula distal to right upper second molar. On radiography, there was an ectopic unerupted tooth in maxillary sinus, removed via sublabial approach with sinuscope. CONCLUSION: This is a rare case of unerupted ectopic tooth in maxillary sinus that presented with oroantral fistula. Opacity in maxillary sinus may be due to unerupted ectopic tooth. Complete removal of tooth along with associated mucosal disease of sinus by INTRODUCTION: Tooth development results from a complicated multi-step interaction between the oral epithelium and the underlying mesenchymal tissue. A series of complex tissue interactions result in the formation of mature teeth. Abnormal tissue interaction during development may potentially result in ectopic tooth development and eruption. Ectopic eruption of a tooth into the dental environment is common, whereas ectopic eruption of a tooth in other sites is rare. Diverse oral anatomical locations can infrequently be the site of an ectopic tooth eruption. Such locations include the nasal cavity, chin, mandibular condyle, coronoid process. One of the sites for an ectopic tooth in a no dental location is the maxillary sinus. Tooth in the maxillary sinus is rare. Due to its rarity, the literature that deals with this is sparse. Ectopic eruption may be associated with one of three distinct processes, Developmental disturbances, pathological processes and iatrogenic activity. The etiology of ectopic teeth is not always known. Impaction of a tooth in the maxillary sinus can be asymptomatic. Such teeth are often discovered serendipitously on radiographs of the skull or teeth. In some cases, patients experience significant symptoms like sinonasal symptoms, oroantral fistula etc. Tooth eruption in the maxillary sinus may cause sinusitis. The treatment of an ectopic maxillary tooth is surgical removal. We present a case of an ectopic third molar which presented in the maxillary sinus presented as oro antral fistula and was removed via endoscopic surgery. CASE REPORT: A 23 years old healthy female was presented for evaluation of pus discharging oro antral fistula distal to right upper second molar. The intra oral examination revealed the right upper third molar was absent. Purulent material from the oro antral fistula was observed. The extra oral examination revealed no signs or symptoms. The patient complained of a headache on the right side of his face for approximately 3 - 4 years. The Xray PNS water's view (figure 1) and lateral view of face (figure 2), and orthopentogram (figure 3) showed a well - defined circular opacity surrounded by a soft tissue mass in the right maxillary sinus. Computed tomography (CT) of

Dentigerous Cyst with Ectopic Third Molar Tooth in Maxillary Sinus causing Chronic Rhinosinusitis

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.

Endoscopic Removal of an Ectopic Tooth in Maxillary Sinus

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 aim of this article is to present and discuss the surgical management of an ectopic third molar in the roof of the maxillary sinus.

Maxillary antral mucocoele caused by ectopic canine tooth in maxillary sinus

AbstractA seventeen year old male presented with a 5 month history of left sided purulent rhinorrhoea and left facial pain. Occlusal view X-ray of maxilla showed the presence of an ectopic canine in the leftt anterosuperior aspect of the maxillary sinus entrapped in soft tissue. Surgical removal of the tooth and the diseased antral tissue was undertaken via a Caldwell-Luc procedure with resolution of symptoms.

Ectopic tooth in maxillary sinus: Case series

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.

Dentigerous Cyst Associated with Ectopic Supernumerary Canine in the Maxillary Sinus

Association of ectopic supernumerary tooth in the maxillary sinus with dentigerous cyst is quite uncommon. The cause is unknown in most of the cases but developmental disturbance, pathologic processes or iatrogenic factors have been implicated. Most are symptomless and usually take an insidious course. Those with symptoms will mimic rhinosinusitis. The ectopic tooth can be found incidentally on routine plain radiographs of the paranasal sinuses, skull or panoramic radiographs. We present the case of a patient of large dentigerous cyst associated with an ectopic supernumerary tooth in the right maxillary sinus.

Dentigerous cyst with an ectopically erupted supernumerary tooth in maxillary sinus

An ectopically erupted tooth in the maxillary sinus presents itself as a confounding problem, which may lead tomaxillary sinusitis. A case of a cyst associated with an ectopic supernumerary tooth in the left maxillary sinus cavity is presented, which is of interest as it has been very rarely documented. Investigations like computed tomography and orthopantamograph were carried out to confirm the extent of the lesion, and the management of the cyst was done by a high vestibular approach. The tooth was removed, cyst was enucleated, wound was closed, Specimen was sent for histopathological examination, and biopsy report confirmed the same. A detailed discussion has been done in relation to the case presented.
