ABSTRACT

Odontogenic sinus tract are abnormal channel originating from infectious processes affecting root tips, eroding mandibular or maxillary bones to form a path that leads to the skin surface near the oral cavity.
Differential diagnoses are: actinomycosis, non-odontogenic bacterial infections, traumatic injuries, tumors, foreign body granuloma, cutaneous tuberculosis and osteomyelitis.
The diagnosis is suspected clinically and confirmed by performing panoramic radiographs and with contrast media. Surgical treatment is required.
