Ectopic eruption of tooth in the oral cavity is often seen. The eruption of teeth extra orally is an extremely rare phenomenon.We report a rare case of mandibular third molar erupting through transcutaneous sinus in a 70 year old patient. CBCT revealed mandibular third molar erupting lateral to the buccal cortex through extra oral sinus. A provisional diagnosis of infected mandibular third molar was made and removal was done through extra oral approach under local anesthesia. The patient recovery was uneventful.
