Treatment of oroantral fistula with buccal fat pad; Report of 8 clinic cases

Halil Anlar

Tepebasi Oral and Dental Health Hospital, Turkey

Background:

Because the roots of the maxillary posterior

teeth are close to the antral cavity, there may be a

relationship between oral and antral cavities during the

extraction of maxillary posterior teeth, excision of cyst tumors

in the maxillary region, resulting frommaxillofacial trauma or

implant treatment. If this relationship is not closed, oroantral

fistula may occur with symptoms such as pain, bad taste and

smell, changes in sound, and food coming out of the nose.

Various techniques have been described in the literature

for the closure of oroantral relationship. One of these is the

"buccal fat pad graft" described by Egyedi in 1977.

In this case series study, we reported our experience with

the buccal fat pad graft technique, the advantages and

disadvantages of the technique, and the complications

encountered after the procedure.

Patıents andMethods:

4 patients with root fracture displaced

to maxillary sinus during the extraction, 2 patients with

residual cyst that close the antral cavity and 2 patients who

applied to our clinic after tooth extraction at different centers

with advanced oroantral fistula.

Conclusion:

Normal healing was observed in all 8 patients

and none oroantral fistula occured recurrence. Buccal fat

tissue flap is a simple, fast and effective oroantral fistula

closure method that can be preferred instead of buccal flap

in which the height of buccal sulcus is reduced or palatal flap

made by secondary healing.
