Instant relief for burning mouth syndrome
Here, Jones and Dr. Gurvits suggest proven strategies to ease the pain of burning mouth syndrome fast:
Pop a stick of gum
Chewing gum is one way to get instant relief from burning mouth syndrome because it helps prod saliva production, which acts like a fire hose to put out the burning, notes Jones. “I’ve also read personal testimonials of people who suck on a piece of dried fruit to help activate saliva and get that lubrication going.” She recommends choosing gum that contains Xylitol because it has the added benefit of tamping down harmful oral bacteria. One option: Xylichew.
