  • Burning mouth sensations have diverse etiologies.
  • Primary burning mouth syndrome is characterized as an idiopathic, likely neuropathic pain disorder.
  • Management approaches vary based on the underlying cause.

Conclusions:

  • Differentiating secondary causes is crucial for effective treatment.
  • Primary burning mouth syndrome requires specific management considerations.
  • Further research into neuropathic pain mechanisms may improve treatment outcomes.
