Management of Oral Surgery-Related Complications

Abstract

This article reviews the optimal management of oroantral fistulas, implants protruding into the maxillary sinus, implants completely displaced into the sinus(es), and infected bone grafts used for sinus augmentation. For each scenario, multidisciplinary management strategies will be considered based on whether there is concurrent infectious odontogenic sinusitis. A multidisciplinary approach with oral surgeons and otolaryngologists is often mandatory to ensure optimal therapeutic outcomes.
