Odontogenic maxillary sinusitis (OMS) is a well‐recognized disease in otolaryngology and oral and maxillofacial surgery. It is diagnosed comprehensively based on the presence of dental disease and radiographic evaluation. Although the disease involves a combination of dental and otorhinolaryngological features, appropriate criteria have not been well established for prioritizing dental procedures in the initial treatment of OMS.
