“…Once foreign bodies have been moved into the sinus, these events should be addressed early to avoid severe complications. Evaluation of imaging exams, especially CT, is essential for a precise diagnose and choice of proper surgical approach (Sencimen et al, 2016;Bozkurt & Erdem, 2017;Asmael, 2018;Hara et al, 2018;Manor et al, 2018;Gnigou et al, 2019;Courtot et al, 2020).…”

During the surgical removal of maxillary molars, tooth or fragment displacement into the maxillary sinus may occur. The presence of foreign bodies inside these cavities leads to complications such as mucoceles, cellulitis, oroantral fistulae and maxillary sinusitis, to prevent the arise and worsening of complications, these events must be addressed in an early stage. This article aims to report the removal of a tooth root from the maxillary sinus, through the modified Caldwell-Luc (CLM) approach and describe the current indications for the Caldwell Luc technique. It reports an upper third molar surgery in which a patient had the distal root of the left superior third molar displaced into the maxillary sinus, later showing signs of sinus opacification and loss of patency of the maxillary ostium obstructed by the root. After antibiotic treatment, the root was recovered through the CLM technique by local anesthesia, without complications. Foreign bodies in the maxillary sinuses must be urgently addressed, avoiding the development of infectious conditions, the CLM approach is the choice approach to manage these complications by a simple and safe way.

In normal cases, the removal can be performed immediately or after 3‐4 weeks and the fibrosis around the tooth and its immobilization in the area, depending on the surgeon's opinion 10 …”

There are various accidents and complications that may occur during extraction of dental elements. The displacement of dental elements to other facial spaces is one kind of the possible complications, and there may be significant physical and psychological results for the patient. The treatment for this kind of occurrence may vary from a conservative technique to surgical procedure, what will depend on clinical characteristics, symptoms, the location of the dental element, and its relation to adjacent structures. The objective of this article is to report a clinical case of the displacement of a lower third molar tooth into the submandibular space during its extraction, followed by surgical removal through extraoral approach, with proservation for the next two years when patient evolved to paresthesia of the inferior alveolar nerve.
