Well-known surgical and orthopedic ways to eliminate maxillary sinus floor perforation in polyclinic conditions are mainly reduced to the application of a deaf suture or iodine-formed turunda with its fixation in the hole. However, these methods have significant disadvantages: displacement of the turunda to the site of perforation causes the formation of a persistent fistula, and the application of deaf suture - the need for significant resection of the alveolar process, especially in the area of molars, because their holes are wide. In addition, there is often a divergence of sutures and breakthrough of the suture material through the gum mucosa. Orthopedic method of treatment is indicated only in cases where there are contraindications to surgery for the overall condition of the patient.
