Foreign object in my sinus cavity
Root canal specialist ruptured my sinus and sealer from root canal went inside. Oral surgeon says he cannot remove and sent me to a ENT. Have read that an endoscopy of the sinus might be able to take it out but the risk of smell loss and taste loss can't permanent - does this always happen?
