ABSTRACT

Ectopic tooth are dental organs found in a uncomon regions. There are publication that report ectopic tooth in the maxillofacial region being common sites palate, paraorbitaria region, nasal cavity, maxillary sinus, chin, coronides process and condyle. Cases have also been reported in non-dental areas such as ovary, anterior mediastinum region usually related to a teratoma. Ectopic tooth are often radiographic findings because they are generally asymptomatic. Its therapeutic when found in the maxillary sinus could be conservative under periodic clinical-radiographic vigilance. Removal of these dental organs is necessary for their tendency to form cysts, develop odontogenic tumors and trigger neuropathic disorders. Surgical options are endoscopic, transnasal, Caldwell Luc or quadrangular approach. We present a case of a female of 32 years old with a diagnosis of ectopic third molar in maxillary antrum.
