Odontogenic complications in the maxillary sinus on the background of chronic periodontitis

Aim. To analyze in detail the impact of periodontitis on the risk of maxillary sinusitis.Materials and methods. During a systematic review of the literature, publications in the electronic databases PubMed and Google Scholar were studied. Articles that deal with the topic of odontogenic sinusitis, the relationship of periodontal pathology with sinusitis were included.Results. 99 articles were reviewed during the review. After analyzing the literature for inclusion criteria, the total number of publications has become 43. Conclusions about the correlation of periodontitis and maxillary sinusitis are formulated based on the analyzed data.Conclusions. According to the literature, it can be assumed that the values of the Schneider membrane thickness directly correlate with the presence of periodontal pathologies. As the pathological marginal loss of bone tissue progresses, this dependence becomes more and more significant. A combination of clinical dental examination and x-ray examination (CT, CBCT) is necessary for the differential diagnosis of odontogenic sinusitis
