A member asked:
The roots of my upper molar are embedded in the wall of the maxillary sinus , would it complicate my orthodontic treatment ?

No: Not in the least. Make sure you see a fully qualified Orthodontic Specialist for best quality care. As tooth moves sinus wall will recontour.

It might complicate: The orthodontist will carefully select force system to overcome the anatomic limitations of moving tooth against the cortical bone of the maxillary sinus wall.
