Odontogenic sinusitis: from teeth to the sinuses and beyond
I have been practicing for 10 years at Henry Ford Health in Detroit, MI, USA after competing my Rhinology fellowship at UPENN. I like all aspects of the nose, sinuses, and skull base. I’ll be moderating or facilitaing sessions or panels panels on odontogenic sinusitis, rethinking empty nose syndrome, nasal septal perforations, fungal sinusitis, and extended maxillary sinus surgery. Looking forward to the meeting!
