Abstract

Dentigerous cyst involving maxillary sinus with ectopic third molar has a low incidence with few cases has been reported and discussed in literature. Usually these are asymptomatic unless they are infected. Early surgical intervention and initial enucleation with tooth removal is always a treatment of choice. Here we present a case with dentigerous cyst involving left maxillary antrum with impacted third molar which was treated under general anaesthesia by approaching lateral window technique and closure done with buccal fat pad. The patient was asymptomatic for 2 years without any complications.
