A gum infection can eventually damage the soft tissue and bone that support teeth. Medical News Today says that complications of gum abscesses can include osteomyelitis, or a bone infection, which causes fever, severe pain in the affected bone and nausea.
Pain is associated with swelling of the gums or face, or you have discharge around a tooth; fever is an important sign of infection in dental disease. Simple dental decay (caries) does not cause fever. These signs may signify an infection surrounding the tooth, the gum, or the jaw bone (mandible).
