Why an ENT Clinic at a Dental Hospital?

The proximity of the oral cavity to the sinuses and throat means many dental issues are actually ENT-related—and vice versa. Our integrated clinic focuses on the "synergy" of these two fields:

  • Odontogenic Sinusitis: We treat sinus infections specifically caused by dental abscesses or complications from dental implants.
  • Maxillary Sinus Health: Essential pre-operative clearance for patients undergoing sinus lifts or bone grafting..
  • Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA): A collaborative approach combining ENT airway evaluation with dental mandibular advancement devices.
  • TMJ & Myofascial Pain: Expert diagnosis to distinguish between ear-related pain and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction.
  • Salivary Gland Disorders: Management of blockages and "stones" in the salivary ducts that impact oral hygiene and comfort.
  • Implant Safety: Before placing dental implants, a surgeon must ensure the sinus floor is healthy. An ENT can clear obstructions or perform "Sinus Lifts" to create a safe foundation for dental work.
