Can going to the dentist cause a rash around the mouth?

Possible: May have a reaction to the gloves or the materials used. However there can be other causes besides the dentist.

Yes: You may have a latex allergy. Mention this to you dentist the next visit. He will change gloves and if you don't get the rash that confirms the allergy. You must always insist on latex free products.
