    Screaming man with fire coming out of mouth


    The medical condition known as burning mouth syndrome (BMS) is a diagnostic puzzle, wrapped around a causation mystery, all topped off by a smorgasbord of treatment options.

    In other words, the health care world knows little about the sources of burning mouth syndrome. Its symptoms are numerous and inconsistent, and the prevailing treatment methods are varied, to say the least. 

    Why does my mouth burn?

    You may have BMS (a.k.a. glossodynia or stomatodynia) if there is a chronic burning sensation in your mouth or lips as if you just tried to swallow boiling coffee. Other symptoms include enduring altered taste, such as a bitter or metallic taste in your mouth.

    That burning sensation is the primary symptom of BMS. The pain will often begin in the late morning, build to a peak by evening, and may subside at night. However, other BMS sufferers may experience a completely different cycle of discomfort.

    Tingling, numbness, loss of all sense of taste, or dryness of the tongue, lips, and mouth may sometimes replace the pain. Or you may experience all of the symptoms, either simultaneously or in random groupings.

    The burning pain of BMS may last for days, months, or years. BMS may suddenly disappear and then reappear without notice, even after years without symptoms. 

    Who is at risk of getting burning mouth syndrome?

    Postmenopausal women and women in menopause are most likely to be affected by burning mouth syndrome. According to the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research, women are about five times more likely than men to be afflicted. 

    What causes burning mouth syndrome?

    When burning mouth syndrome is caused by underlying pain conditions or other abnormalities, it is known as secondary BMS. The treatment plan for secondary BMS is relatively simple: diagnose and cure the underlying condition. Some of the underlying conditions that seem to be associated with burning mouth pain are:

    Woman with acid reflux holding sore throat
    • Dry mouth (xerostomia), which can be caused by some medications, various health problems, or salivary gland malfunction.
    • Other mouth symptoms, such as a fungal infection of the mouth (a.k.a. thrush or candidiasis), an inflammatory condition called oral lichen planus, or the aptly named geographic tongue, in which the patient’s tongue looks like a relief map of Colorado. These conditions can be identified by standard diagnostic tools, such as a biopsy or blood test.
    • Nutritional deficiencies, such as a lack of iron, zinc, and/or vitamin B12.
    • Allergic reactions or other responses to food, fragrances, dyes, or metallic dentures.
    • Acid reflux, known as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), in which stomach acid is regurgitated into the mouth.
    • Some medications, particularly those known as ACE inhibitors, which are prescribed for high blood pressure.
    • Endocrine disorders, such as diabetes or an underactive thyroid.
    • Sjogren’s syndrome, a systemic autoimmune disease affecting the salivary glands.
    • Hormonal changes due to menopause.
    • The side effects of some oral medicines.
    • Psychological problems, like anxiety, depression, or stress, are also linked with BMS. But whether such mental/emotional conditions cause BMS, or result from it, (or both) is yet to be determined. 

    Diagnosis of primary burning mouth syndrome

    Burning mouth syndrome is located within an unexplored intersection between medicine and dentistry. There are currently no diagnostic tools that can reliably identify primary BMS. So, the most effective method of diagnosing primary BMS is to eliminate all other potential causes. When every other possible cause of BMS-like symptoms has been ruled out, the patient probably has BMS. 

    Treatment for burning mouth syndrome

    As noted above, treatment of secondary BMS is straightforward: find the causative condition and cure it. Fortunately, nearly all of the more common conditions which underlie secondary BMS are amenable to available treatment plans.

    Treatment of primary BMS is a different, and more perplexing problem

    There is no currently available cure for primary BMS, and there is no single effective treatment method. According to the Mayo Clinic, “solid research on the most effective methods is lacking.” 

    Instead, treatment is aimed at identifying and controlling the most vexing symptoms. Several treatment methods may have to be tried before the most effective protocol is determined. Those methods include:

    • Replacing salivary flow with saliva replacement products
    • Using oral rinses containing lidocaine
    • Using toothpaste that does not contain sodium laurel sulfate, which can irritate the mouth and lips
    • Applying topical capsaicin – a completely counterintuitive pain reliever – derived from red-hot chili peppers
    • Taking an anticonvulsant medication like clonazepam in a low-dose prescription
    • Taking antidepressants
    • Using medications, such as gabapentin and amitriptyline that block neuropathic pain
    • Employing cognitive-behavioral therapy to develop strategies against the anxiety and depression that result from (or perhaps cause) the chronic pain of BMS.

    Can BMS be prevented?

    The simple, short, and accurate answer is no. But there are steps that can reduce the frequency and intensity of BMS episodes:

    • Avoid alcohol (including mouthwashes containing alcohol)
    • Don’t smoke tobacco (good advice in any context)
    • Avoid acidic foods like tomatoes and citrus fruits
    • Shun cinnamon and mint
    • Practice good oral health
    • Stay away from spicy foods
    • Drink a lot of fluids
    • Practice relaxation, meditation, yoga

    Treatment of gum recession can be performed without harvesting tissue from the hard palate. This makes the procedure significantly more comfortable. aPRF is similar to PRP but even better because it contains more growth factors and can be prepped in the form of “Fibrin BandAids” that are used to increase the amount of tissue and cover roots. #gumrecession #periosurgery #beverlyhills #aprf #pinholesurgicaltechnique #dentalimplants #holistichealth #holisticdentistry

    You need to look for these signs of tooth enamel erosion!

Even though your tooth enamel is the toughest substance in your body, it's also at risk of decay if not properly cared for. This can result in the yellowing of teeth, cavities, severe tooth pain, and even infection. Several factors cause enamel erosion, many of which are preventable. Learn what to look out for! https://bit.ly/333ze4m

    You will want to read this! 11 bad habits that can ruin your teeth:

1. Smoking 
Smoking stains your teeth, can cause gum and periodontal disease, and can even result in premature permanent tooth loss. And don’t forget that tobacco products are the primary cause of most oral cancers.

2. Nail Biting
Our nails are made out of a tough material known as keratin. Chewing on keratin causes cracking, chipping, and/or erosion of your teeth. Nail-biting also repositions your jaw at a misaligned angle. 

3. Chewing on foreign objects, such as pencils
Chewing on a foreign object often results in an unconscious application of excessive force. This can damage teeth. 

4. Chewing Ice
Crunching an ice cube is pitting one hard object against another. It’s inevitable that sometimes your teeth are going to lose that contest. 

5. Playing sports without a mouthguard

6. Thumb sucking
It can misalign your new teeth as they arrive, and it can even cause deformities in the roof of your mouth. 

7. Tongue piercings
It’s surprisingly easy to bite down on the appliance, and chipped teeth are often the result.

8. Opening things with your teeth: A cracked tooth is not a good look.

9. Teeth Grinding
Whether you are grinding by day, by night, or both, this habit will erode your teeth, and increase tooth sensitivity. 

10. Brushing your teeth too hard, using a toothbrush that’s too hard, or both
This causes the soft tissue of our teeth to become exposed. This exposure increases vulnerability to erosion, gum disease, and tooth decay. 

11. Drinking beverages with sugar in them, including sports drinks
The harmful bacteria in our mouths thrive on sugar, and that causes plaque to be produced more quickly. Plaque, in turn, turns into tartar, which causes tooth and gum decay if not promptly and properly removed. Just avoiding sugary foods and drinks prevents all this.

    If you suffer from any of these symptoms then it's time to see a periodontist and avoid related health issues:

1. Bleeding Gums when Brushing or Flossing

2. Red, Swollen, Tender Gums

3. Chronic Bad Breath (Halitosis)

4. Hot and/or Cold Sensitive Teeth

5. Loose Teeth (in adults)

6. Gum Recession: If your teeth are looking longer, it could be because your gums are receding.

Periodontitis also comes with the potential for related health issues. Periodontal infections correlate with heart disease, diabetes, osteopenia, and osteoporosis. That’s why it’s important to get gum disease treated before the bacterial infection spreads through the bloodstream.

Two of the most trusted and respected periodontists and holistic dentists in Southern California are the American Board of Periodontology-certified husband and wife team of Dr. Abdy Moshrefi, DDS, and Dr. Nazanin Daneshmand, DDS.
