Abstract
|
|
|
|
This case report is to report an extraordinary case of the spontaneous discharge of a dental implant. A 45-year-old woman was referred to our department complaining of symptoms of acute Maxillary sinusitis. She underwent a computed tomography scan that revealed a dental implant dislocated in the maxillary sinus. A preoperative medical treatment [Amoxicillin - Clavulanate (375 mg) and Streptokinase-Streptodornase (12500IU)] three times a day for two weeks was administered in order to prepare her for surgery. Unexpectedly, she reported that she had discharged the implant from mouth in the early morning. Mucociliary clearance in combination with a local osteolytic inflammatory process and mucolytics therapy are the likely causes of this unusual discharge.
