Summary We report a case of cutaneous odontogenic sinus tract to the chin. The patient first noticed the cutaneous condition in 1977. Inappropriate medical and dental treatment was ineffective. Correct diagnosis and treatment was completed in 1993. We offer diagnostic and treatment guidelines for the management of similar cases.
