@stloms.bsky.socialUpper back teeth and the maxillary sinus can be close neighbors. The floor of the sinus may sit near, between, or over the roots of upper molars. That relationship can influence how dental infection presents, how an extraction is planned, and whether additional…

@stloms.bsky.socialWith lower wisdom teeth, position matters. Relationship matters more. The roots may sit near the canal that carries the inferior alveolar nerve. Standard imaging often provides the first view. When the relationship appears close or complex, three-dimensional imaging…

@stloms.bsky.socialOne face. Several connected systems. Skin and soft tissue sit over muscles that move the jaw and expression. Those muscles attach to a skeleton that houses teeth, joints, nerves, sinuses, and the upper airway. A symptom in one area can be influenced by…
@stloms.bsky.socialA two-dimensional image can answer a lot. Some surgical questions are three-dimensional. Cone-beam CT lets the surgeon study teeth, roots, bone volume, sinus boundaries, nerve canals, and impactions as one connected map. That context matters when millimeters can change the…
