“…1). Therefore, it has been alleged that taste could be affected by BMS, in conjunction with the activation of the chronic trigeminal neuralgia pathway 11,12,14,24,[27][28][29][30][31] . BMS may be caused by the hyperactivity of somatosensory fibers of the trigeminal nerve, followed by the loss of central inhibition due to the damage to the sensory of the chorda tympani nerve or of the glossopharyngeal nerve.…”

Introduction: Burning mouth syndrome (BMS) is characterized by a recurrent daily burning sensation with no evidence lesions in the oral mucosa. It is accompanied by subjective dry mouth and dysgeusia. The tongue is the most commonly affected site, but the condition also affects other sites in the mouth. Its etiopathogeny is multifactorial and its diagnosis is made by exclusion. Objective: This article reviews the literature about the epidemiology, etiopathogeny, and diagnosis of BMS in the past 15 years. Articles were selected from PubMed/MEDLINE, and included clinical assays, case reports, and reviews. We found 509 articles, and only 136 were chosen. The key words were: burning mouth syndrome (BMS), review, etiopathogeny, diagnosis. Conclusions: BMS remains an important diagnostic challenge, though the disease is considered a neuropathy characterized by damage to trigeminal peripheral nervous fibers, which triggers central sensitization. In addition to BMS and secondary BMS, it seems relevant to include complicated BMS, in which symptoms persist despite the elimination of local and systemic causes. BMS should be investigated by a transdisciplinary team that will take into account all aspects active in the mental and physical dimensions of the condition, in the most detailed way. Therefore, QST, imaging investigations, various evaluation scales of mental health and of the impact of BMS on quality of life as well as the investigation of sleep disorders and changes in circadian rhythm could be useful tools in the development of treatment strategies based on findings and observing the characteristics of each BMS patient in light of specifics of diagnosis.

“…There is no change in the pain with eating or drinking, and often there is alleviation of pain with sweet food 3 , 4 . The pain may be accompanied by subjective changes in somatosensory perception, such as taste alterations, 5 , 6 taste phantoms, hyposalivation and mood alteration 7 . A burning sensation in the oral cavity may also be a sequela of various local and systemic pathologies, such as candidiasis, immune deficiency, nutritional deficiencies such as iron and vitamin B12 deficiency, infection, diabetes, trauma, medication, allergies, galvanism, xerostomia and dermatologic diseases such as lichen planus.…”

Background/purposeIntraoral and perioral burning sensations may be sequelae of burning mouth syndrome (BMSD) or burning mouth symptoms (BMSP), which present a diagnostic challenge. The aims of the study were to evaluate the efficacy of a topical anesthetic as a diagnostic test to differentiate BMSD from BMSP and to assess the comorbidities and responses to various pharmacologic treatments in BMSD and BMSP patients.Materials and methodsA total of forty-four charts of patients with burning mouth that visited the Rutgers School of Dental Medicine Orofacial Pain Clinic between January 1st, 2000 and November 1st, 2014 were retrospectively reviewed. Twenty patients were diagnosed with BMSD, and 24 patients were diagnosed with BMSP attributed to local and systemic causes. The diagnosis was determined per the guidelines of the International Association for the Study of Pain and American Academy of Orofacial Pain. The main goal of this study was to evaluate the effect of topical anesthetic medication applied to the burning site.ResultsThe percentage of change in pain reduction following topical anesthetic application in the BMSP group was significantly higher than that of the BMSD group (p < 0.05). In the BMSD group, 77% of females and 27% of males responded to clonazepam. One third of the females in the BMSP group also suffered from hypertension.ConclusionTopical anesthetics can be used as a simple, swift and efficient chair-side diagnostic tool to differentiate BMSD and BMSP. Females have a better response to clonazepam in BMSD.
