Burning mouth syndrome (BMS), a chronic orofacial pain disorder with the presence of burning sensation in the oral cavity without any specific oral disease. It commonly affects elderly aged and middle aged women with significant psychological disorders or hormonal changes. Patients also complain of altered taste sensation, pain in oral mucosa, and dry mouth. It is usually idiopathic in nature and its etiopathogenesis is not yet clear. Following the clinical evaluation, treatment strategies include pharmacological management and reassurance of patients.
