Burning mouth syndrome
Burning mouth syndrome causes chronic burning pain in your mouth. The pain from burning mouth syndrome may affect your tongue, gums, lips, inside of your cheeks, roof of your mouth, or widespread areas of your whole mouth. The pain can be severe, as if you scalded your mouth.
Unfortunately, the cause of burning mouth syndrome often can't be determined. While that makes treatment more difficult, don't despair. By working closely with your health care team, you can usually get burning mouth syndrome under control.
Other names for burning mouth syndrome include scalded mouth syndrome, burning tongue syndrome, burning lips syndrome, glossodynia and stomatodynia.
