Background: The odontogenic maxillary sinusitis is the consequence of the distribution of an inflammatory or infectious process of a tooth in sinuses mucous membranes.
Aim: The purpose of our work is to study epidemiological profile, clinical and radiological characteristics allowing the diagnosis of this pathology as well as the various therapeutic strategies adopted.
Methods: We report a retrospective study of 31 observations of odontogenic maxillary sinusitis brought together in the service of ORL and of CMF of Rabta hospital over a period of 12 years.
Results: In our series, the frequency of this pathology was considered at 42.5% among the group of all maxillary sinusitis brought together during the same period, the average age was of 38 years with a sex ratio of 1.04. The dental antecedents are obvious in 80% of cases, the iatrogenic was found in 64% of cases. Dental causes were dominated buy para-apical cysts (29%), and the movement of the dough canalaire (23%) especially in fongic forms of sinusitis.

There are no clear guidelines for deciding between endoscopic sinus surgery and tooth extraction for the treatment of odontogenic sinusitis. Furthermore, tooth extraction does not necessarily improve sinusitis and eventually results in additional endoscopic sinus surgery. The present study aimed to retrospectively investigate negative predictive factors of tooth extraction for odontogenic sinusitis.

: Sinus lifting, a procedure to augment bone in the maxilla, may cause complications such as sinusitis due to impaired drainage. This study aimed to assess how sinus lifting impacts airflow in the sinus cavity, which is essential for patients undergoing dental implants. Using computational fluid dynamics (CFD), this research analyzed airflow changes after sinus floor elevation, offering insights into the aerodynamic consequences of the procedure.

Background: Odontogenic maxillary sinusitis (OMS) is recognized in literature, but diagnosing it is challenging due to its different and overlapping clinical presentations of it. Misdiagnosis can lead to persistent symptoms and clinical burden. Interestingly, recent guidelines from the American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery lack recommendations for dental evaluation in adult sinusitis cases.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFPurpose: This retrospective study aimed to compare extended sinus lift and extramaxilla surgical protocols for restoring severely atrophic maxillae with zygomatic implants (ZIs) and evaluate their clinical effectiveness.
Materials And Methods: The study includes patients who were treated at a dental clinic in Italy from 2012 to 2022. These patients received fixed screw-retained complete dentures supported by either two or four zygomatic implants (ZIs).
