Description
What Does the Procedure Involve?
The procedure involves the surgical closure of an opening connecting the sinus with the oral cavity. A dental surgeon removes inflamed tissues and repositions nearby mucous membrane or a gingival flap to precisely seal the communication site. The entire procedure is performed under local anesthesia and typically lasts several tens of minutes.
When is Oro-antral Communication Closure Performed?
-
After the removal of upper teeth, when sinus perforation occurred during the procedure
-
When the patient notices air, liquids, or food entering the nose
-
In cases of chronic sinus infections following extraction
-
When preparation for implant procedures in the sinus area is necessary
Why is Prompt Treatment Important?
An untreated oro-antral communication can lead to chronic maxillary sinusitis, recurrent infections, and significant difficulties in daily functioning. Early surgical intervention helps to avoid complications and shortens recovery time.
