Ectopic eruption of a tooth within the dentate region of the jaws is often noticed in clinical practice and is well documented in the literature. But the ectopic eruption into the non dentate region is rare and scantly documented. The maxillary sinus is one such a non dentate region, apart from nasal septum, mandibular condyle, coronoid process and the palate, to accommodate such ectopic eruptions of teeth. Due to its rarity and lack of consensus over its management, the incidence deserves to be added to the literature and discussed. Early surgical intervention for removal of ectopic tooth along with enucleation of the associated cyst, if any, is the treatment of choice.

“…Although they are asymptomatic in the majority of cases, these cysts can become symptomatic. They also have been reported in cases with orbital proptosis; or they may produce signs of nerve compression, that is, numbness and paresthesia (12,13). Other studies have shown that impingement of the maxillary variant on the orbital floor can cause diplopia and possibly even blindness (14).…”

“…Cyst involving the maxillary sinus may be presented with symptoms like swelling, pain,headache,and nasolacrimal obstruction (Takagi & Koyoma 1999, Tournas et al 2006). Ophthalmic symptoms like epiphora, proptosis, diplopia (Golden et al 1981, Atlas et al 1997) and even blindness have been reported (Savundranayagam 1972). Numbness or parasthesia due to nerve compression can also occur (Takagi & Koyoma 1999).…”

Background: Dentigerous cyst (DC) is the second most common cyst of the jaw after radicular, affecting mostly the permanent dentition in the mandible (70%). DC Of maxillary sinus involving ectopic teeth is rare. Case details: We report a case of DC of maxillary sinus as well as anterior mandible associated with ectopic teeth, in a non-syndromic 8 years old boy who underwent cyst enucleation along with extraction of the involved teeth. Conclusion: DC affecting both maxilla and mandible is a less common entity. Treatment modality can range from enucleation to simple marsupilisation depending upon the extent of the lesion.
