Single-step sinus and dental surgery for tooth-related sinusitis
Part of Ear, nose & throat, Infections, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests a combined procedure to fix sinus infections caused by tooth problems. If you have chronic sinusitis from a dental issue that hasn't improved with other treatments, this surgery might help by addressing both the tooth and sinus in one operation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have sinusitis that comes from a tooth problem (odontogenic maxillary sinusitis).
- Your sinusitis has not gotten better with dental or medical treatments.
- Both an ear-nose-throat (ENT) doctor and a dentist or oral surgeon agree the cause is from a tooth.
- A CT scan shows bone loss around the tooth root and a link between the tooth and sinus.
- You have not had sinus surgery before.
- You do not have sinus cancer or sinusitis from other causes.

This study tests whether balloon sinuplasty works better or more efficiently for people with long-lasting or repeatedly returning inflammation in the maxillary sinuses (side sinuses near your cheeks). It focuses on people who did not improve with the usual nose spray (topical steroid) or who meet specific “recurrent” episode patterns.
This study compares two techniques to lift the sinus floor and place dental implants at the same time in people with limited bone height. It aims to find which method is more effective and comfortable for patients.
This trial compares two surgical methods to help place dental implants in the upper back jaw when there isn’t enough bone height. It may help you and your dentist choose the safest approach to create enough support for the implant.
This study compares two types of endoscopic sinus surgery to treat chronic sinusitis that affects the frontal sinuses. The goal is to see which method works better for relieving symptoms and improving quality of life.
This trial tests a new, gentler way to lift the sinus floor so that dental implants can be placed in the upper jaw. It may help people who don't have enough bone height for standard implants.
This trial compares two surgical methods for lifting the sinus membrane to add bone for dental implants. It may help if you have very little bone left in your upper jaw back teeth area.
