Abstract

Ectopic teeth in the maxillary sinus are a rare finding and pose a diagnostic challenge due to their unusual location and clinical management. A 28-year-old man presented with complaints of discomfort and pressure in the maxillary sinus region. A CT scan and cinematic rendering revealed the presence of ectopic teeth in the maxillary sinus bilaterally. The use of cinematic rendering provided a more detailed and accurate visualization of the ectopic teeth and surrounding anatomical structures. A CT scan is the primary imaging modality used for the diagnosis and visualization of ectopic teeth in the maxillary sinus. In addition, the use of cinematic rendering can improve diagnostic accuracy and reduce the need for further imaging studies. The use of CT and cinematic rendering can help in the diagnosis and visualization of ectopic teeth in the maxillary sinus, aiding in the planning of surgical interventions.
