Dear madam,
If your RCT has been successfully completed, you will need to undergo sinus excision now. The procedure involves excision of the tract under local anaesthesia. You may contact us for further advice.

Hello Mam,
It Is a good sign that the sinus tract is healing,meaning the periapical infection/pus/abscess seems to have been eliminated.As far as the scar tissue is concerned you can contact a plastic surgeon/Dermatologist.

Hello there.
I can understand your concern.
If the scar is developed then im assuming the sinus is closed and gone.
For the scar you need to consult a dermatologist in person for further evaluation and management.
He will be able to help you further based on the size and all.
Best regards.
