Burning Mouth Syndrome

Do you ever feel a burning sensation on your tongue or the inside of your mouth? This is called burning mouth syndrome, or occasionally burning tongue syndrome. It often comes with dry mouth or a metallic taste in your mouth, and can be aggravated by hot or spicy foods. Causes of this condition come in many forms, including a vitamin B12 deficiency, menopause, a yeast infection in the mouth, or irritation from dentures or similar objects.

If you are experiencing burning mouth syndrome, consult the dentist at our Lynnwood dentistry clinic to explore your problem and discuss possible solutions.
