1. glossodynia

   Burning mouth syndrome (BMS) is a burning, tingling or scalding sensation in the mouth, lasting for at least four to six months, with no underlying known dental or medical cause. No related signs of disease are found in the mouth. People with burning mouth syndrome may also have a subjective xerostomia (dry mouth sensation where no cause can be found such as reduced salivary flow), paraesthesia (altered sensation such as tingling in the mouth), or an altered sense of taste or smell.A burning sensation in the mouth can be a symptom of another disease when local or systemic factors are found to be implicated; this is not considered to be burning mouth syndrome, which is a syndrome of medically unexplained symptoms. The International Association for the Study of Pain defines burning mouth syndrome as "a distinctive nosological entity characterized by unremitting oral burning or similar pain in the absence of detectable mucosal changes" and "burning pain in the tongue or other oral mucous membranes", and the International Headache Society defines it as "an intra-oral burning sensation for which no medical or dental cause can be found". To ensure the correct diagnosis of burning mouth syndrome, Research Diagnostic Criteria (RDC/BMS) have been developed.Insufficient evidence leaves it unclear if effective treatments exist.

1. glossodynia

   Glossodynia, also known as burning mouth syndrome, is a medical condition characterized by a persistent burning sensation in the mouth without any apparent physical cause. The sensation may affect the tongue, gums, lips, inside of the cheek or the whole mouth, and may fluctuate or persist throughout the day. It can be associated with dry mouth, metallic taste or a numbness sensation in the mouth. It is often seen in postmenopausal women and can be linked to factors such as psychological stress, hormonal changes, nutritional deficiencies or nerve damage.
