Abstract
Slippage of an implant into the maxillary sinus is an exceptional complication that may occur during immediate implant placement. In this study, removal of a displaced implant into the maxillary sinus with the aid of endo-scopy via buccal window approach is reported. Management of such a rare complication is also addressed.Keywords
