The underlying mechanisms of these complications are often poorly understood by medical professionals, partly due to limited interdisciplinary education. This review aims to bridge this gap by summarizing the relevant anatomical connections between the oral and ocular regions, exploring the mechanisms through which dental procedures may lead to ophthalmic complications, and detailing their clinical presentations, progression, and potential management and preventive strategies. Methods: Published case reports and case series from 1950 to October 2024 that described ophthalmic complications in human patients following dental procedures were included in this scoping review. Results: Dental procedures can give rise to a variety of ophthalmological complications, whether neuro\u2013ophthalmic (e.g., diplopia, ptosis, or vision loss), vascular (e.g., retrobulbar hemorrhage or cervical artery dissection), infectious (e.g., orbital cellulitis or abscess), mechanical (e.g., orbital trauma or fractures), or air-related (e.g., orbital and subcutaneous emphysema). Conclusions: Most of the ophthalmological complications following dental procedures are often reversible, but some can be vision-threatening or lead to permanent sequelae if not promptly recognized and managed. Prevention through precise technique and anatomical awareness, early identification of symptoms, and timely multidisciplinary collaboration are crucial to minimizing risks and ensuring better patient outcomes.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/diseases13080244","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,8,4]],"date-time":"2025-08-04T10:48:08Z","timestamp":1754304488000},"page":"244","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Ophthalmic Complications After Dental Procedures: Scoping Review"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Xingao C.","family":"Wang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, McGill University, Montreal, QC H3G 2M1, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Cindy","family":"Zhao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Dentistry, University of Montreal, Montreal, QC H3T 1J4, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1662-6900","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kevin Y.","family":"Wu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Division of Ophthalmology, University of Sherbrooke, Sherbrooke, QC J1K 2R1, Canada"},{"name":"Department of Dentistry, Faculty of Dental Medicine and Oral Health Sciences, McGill University, Montreal, QC H3A 0G4, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1069-630X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Michael","family":"Marchand","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Division of Ophthalmology, University of Sherbrooke, Sherbrooke, QC J1K 2R1, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,8,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"648","DOI":"10.1007\/s12663-022-01715-4","article-title":"Etiology and Pathophysiological Pathways of Ocular Complications Associated with Local Dental Anesthesia and Odontogenic Infections: A Systematic Review","volume":"21","author":"Joshi","year":"2022","journal-title":"J.
