Ectopic tooth in maxillary sinus: Case series
A 26 year old male reported to us with orthopantomogram for implant (bone plates and screws) removal. The orthopantomogram (OPG) and the Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) scan showed an incidental finding of impacted ectopic maxillary tooth in the second quadrant []. The ectopic tooth was inverted and the superior most cusp tip was about 18mm above and placed distal to the root apex of the second molar. There was no cystic pathology evident with the ectopic tooth. All the third molars were missing, but the ectopic tooth morphology did not match the size and shape of the third molar. Patient was informed of consequences and followe up.
