Stomatodynia or burning mouth syndrome.
We reviewed the literature on stomatodynia particularly to identify the factors associated with this annoying manifestation in order to better understand it and treat it. No consensus was found in the literature regarding etiological factors, associated morbidity, treatment, and definition of the burning mouth syndrome. This review aims at defining the disease, its characteristics, criteria for the diagnosis, and treatment.
