    Area of Science:

    • Dentistry
    • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
    • Ectopic Teeth

    Background:

    • Ectopic eruption of maxillary molars is uncommon.
    • Maxillary sinus involvement presents unique diagnostic and treatment challenges.

    Observation:

    • A dilacerate maxillary second molar was discovered.
    • The tooth was found adhered to the medial wall of the maxillary sinus.

    Findings:

    • The ectopic molar's unusual location suggests ankylosis.
    • Infantile injury is hypothesized as the cause of ankylosis and malposition.

    Implications:

    • This case highlights the importance of considering sinus proximity in dental anomalies.
    • Understanding the etiology of ectopic teeth aids in clinical management.
    • Further research into infantile injury and dental development is warranted.
