Intermittently draining cutaneous sinus tract in the area of the face may be caused by chronic dental Infection. Diagnosis of the cause may be challenging but is the key to successful therapy, A case report of the diagnosis and treatment of an extra-oral draining fistula associated with a mandibular left first premolar is presented. Conventional non-surgical endodontic treatment was performed. One week later, the orifice of the sinus tract had closed. Twenty-two months later, the sinus tract had healed completely and the periapical lesion had resolved.
