Both of these situations are rare and not something that you should worry about. If you had an abcess that caused a severe infection into the sinus cavity, your dentist would have already told you about it.

Hi Bryanna, I hope you're still around
I've been to a dental surgeon (after much debating with medical specialists and a CT scan) for what they've finally agreed is a severely abcessed tooth that has invaded deep into the sinus cavity.
I'm booked in for surgery on the 27th, I'm just wondering if you can tell me anything about what to expect/are there any risks associated with this surgery?
The doctor doing the work comes highly recommended, and seems to really know his stuff, but isn't very good at explaining what to expect
I'd really appreciate any insight you or anyone else can give.
