Yes: Yes gum disease can affect your whole mouth. I would recommend you have a dentist evaluate your mouth to rule out a spider bite. Hope this helps, .

See below: Gum disease can affect the entire mouth. A spider bite is a completely different issue that is not likely to be related to gum disease. Did you have a spider bite that you know of? Please be checked by your physician and dentist.
