A member asked:
Can nasal allergies and heavy congestion negatively impact the recovery process of an apicoectomy or the recovery process of a new dental filling if the teeth are upper molars?

They should have no effect on any healing process. The presence of allergies or sinus congestion may result in the feeling of a maxillary toothache due to the irritation of the sinus floor. This can often be confused with a dental issue.
