PurposeRemoval of antral foreign bodies after implantation is mandatory to avoid infectious processes and may be a troublesome question. Different surgical approaches could be considered, with several limitations and morbidities. MethodsWe present a new tool (Antral Retriever) conceived to remove antral dental implants or any other migrated material through a minimally invasive canine fossa approach, under continuous endoscopic view and local anesthesia. Results and ConclusionsAntral Retriever enables the surgeon to successfully remove antral foreign bodies through a canine fossa approach under continuous endoscopic visualization and local anesthesia, with minimal discomfort for the patient.
