Figure 3

(a) Considering esthetics, the Weber-Ferguson incision was performed without subciliary extension. (b) Since this facial incision line does not allow for a lateral approach, the contralateral maxillary sinus was opened using the Caldwell-Luc procedure, and a 70-degree bur was inserted to drill the base of the pterygoid process within the sphenoid sinus using the contralateral transmaxillary approach.

Note: The facial illustration in this figure was created using AI tools specifically for this publication.
