Some chronic lesions develop without an acute phase with no recollection of previous symptoms. It is known that maxillary odontogenic infections can breach the sinus floor with succeeding complications. Pantomography, a widespread conventional radiographic technique, provides a generalized view of the maxillofacial region. Advanced modalities like CBCT may facilitate in navigating complex anatomy, which would otherwise be obscured.enDentistryOral pathologyRadiologyMaxillary sinusDiagnostic accuracyDiagnostic accuracy of maxillary periapical pathology perforating the sinus floor: a comparison of pantomograph and CBCT imagesUniversity of Western Cape
