[Burning mouth caused by denture material].
A 60-year-old man with an edentulous maxilla was referred by his dentist to an allergy clinic with complaints of burning mouth and bad taste. In the majority of cases, it is hard or impossible to detect the cause of burning mouth. In this case, ultimately the complaint could be solved by eliminating exposure to possible allergenic components of denture base resins.
