A member asked:
Can a tooth abscess be related to an eye sty?
6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No!: A sty is a clogged oil gland of the lid margin. A tooth abcess is an infection. One can not cause the other or be related.

Not very likely: I have never heard of a sty causing a dental abscess, but a dental abscess could possible track towards the orbit and have a site of drainage near the eye lid.
