    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odontogenic_sinusitis

    Odontogenic sinusitis is a type of sinusitis (inflammation of the sinuses), specifically caused by dental infections or procedures. [1] Comprising approximately 10-12% of all chronic sinusitis cases, this condition primarily affects the maxillary sinus, which is in close proximity to the upper teeth. [2]

  3. Odontogenic infection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odontogenic_infection

    Infections associated with teeth may be responsible for approximately 20% of cases of maxillary sinusitis. [7] The cause of this situation is usually a periapical or periodontal infection of a maxillary posterior tooth, where the inflammatory exudate has eroded through the bone superiorly to drain into the maxillary sinus.

  4. Maxillary sinus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxillary_sinus

    Maxillary sinusitis is common due to the close anatomic relation of the frontal sinus, anterior ethmoidal sinus and the maxillary teeth, allowing for easy spread of infection. Differential diagnosis of dental problems needs to be done due to the close proximity to the teeth since the pain from sinusitis can seem to be dentally related. [ 1 ]

    The cause of this situation is usually a periapical or periodontal infection of a maxillary posterior tooth, where the inflammatory exudate has eroded through the bone superiorly to drain into the maxillary sinus. [59] An estimated 0.5 to 2.0% of viral rhinosinusitis (VRS) will develop into bacterial infections in adults and 5 to 10% in ...

  7. Oroantral fistula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oroantral_fistula

    The maxillary sinus is known for its thin floor and close proximity to the posterior maxillary (upper) teeth. [ 1 ] [ 6 ] The extraction of a maxillary tooth (typically a maxillary first molar which lies close to the lowest point of antral floor although any premolar or molar can be affected) is the most common cause of an OAC (which can then ...

  8. Paranasal sinuses - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paranasal_sinuses

    Because the maxillary posterior teeth are close to the maxillary sinus, this can also cause clinical problems if any disease processes are present, such as an infection in any of these teeth. These clinical problems can include secondary sinusitis, the inflammation of the sinuses from another source such as an infection of the adjacent teeth. [6]

  9. Toothache - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toothache

    The posterior, middle and anterior superior alveolar nerves are all closely associated with the lining of the sinus. The bone between the floor of the maxillary sinus and the roots of the upper back teeth is very thin, and frequently the apices of these teeth disrupt the contour of the sinus floor.
