| description | Introduction: Sinusitis or other disorders related to the sinuses may be indicated by the maxillary sinus mucosal thickening. The aim of this report is to present considerations in dental implant placement in participants with maxillary sinus mucosal thickening. Case Description: 1. A 68-year-old male patient visited the clinic with the missing tooth on maxillary right first molar. Maxillary sinus mucosal thickening was observed from cone-beam computed tomography. The tentative diagnosis turned out to be maxillary retention cyst. Dental implantation was done and uneventful healing was obtained afterwards.2. A 76-year-old female was presented with the missing tooth on maxillary left first premolar. Maxillary sinus mucosal thickening was observed from cone-beam computed tomography. The defect area was grafted with bone graft and membrane.3. A 57-Year-old female was presented with the missing tooth on maxillary right second premolar. Maxillary sinus mucosal thickening was observed from cone-beam computed. The patient has previously received the surgical procedure for the sinusitis. Installation of dental implant was performed without surgical complications. Discussion: The otolaryngologist may advise different treatments, such as antibiotics for sinusitis, allergy medicines for allergic rhinitis, or surgery for structural problems like a deviated septum or nasal polyps, depending on the underlying condition causing the thicker maxillary sinus membrane.Minimally invasive surgical procedure performed by otolaryngologist can improve drainage and lowers the risk of sinusitis by removing extra tissue or bone from the sinus cavity. Conclusion/Clinical Significance: In conclusion, a dental implant placement can be delayed if there are unresolved sinus concerns that need to be addressed before otolaryngologist can diagnose and treat them. |
