Burning Mouth And Seniors. Dr. Mancin Can Help!
Burning
mouth usually occurs in individuals over 50, but can affect others as
well. There are several reasons why it occurs.Denture problems: a new denture, or one that doesn't fit well, can irritate your entire mouth.
Reduced salivary gland function: Dr. Mancin knows that this will cause the mouth to become dry, inviting oral discomfort, difficulty eating or swallowing, loss of taste, and a burning mouth. Salivary gland dysfunction sometimes comes with age. But there are saliva substitutes and rinses at Northland Dental LLC & The Center for Dental & Facial Aesthetics that we can prescribe to protect your oral tissues, and soothe burning sensations.
Medications: these often dry the mouth (side effects).
Vitamin deficiency: there is some evidence linking burning mouth
syndrome to Vitamin B deficiency.
Candida infections: this is a common oral fungus, usually apparent to
the eye but sometimes undetectable. At Northland Dental LLC & The Center for Dental & Facial Aesthetics we can prescribe a
topical anti-fungal agent that can help the problem.
Call us at (816) 436-2760 for more information on how we can help you with
burning
mouth.
