Abstract

For odontogenic sinusitis (ODS), appropriately treating the infectious dental pathology and sinusitis leads to disease resolution in greater than 90% of cases. Importantly, managing the sinusitis of ODS is distinct from non-odontogenic rhinosinusitis. The main factors affecting ODS management decision-making include whether patients present with complicated ODS (extrasinus infectious spread), whether they have treatable dental pathology, and whether they have high dental versus sinusitis symptom burdens. This article will provide an evidence-based approach to the multidisciplinary management necessary to manage the purulent sinusitis characteristic of ODS.
