Suck on an ice cube
No mystery why this strategy freezes out pain. But if an ice cube is too frigid, try softening the “brr” a bit by drinking a glass of cold water. Indeed, Dr. Gurvits recommends his patients keep a glass by their bedside at night for instant relief from burning mouth syndrome.
Consider a tongue protector
This remedy is specifically for patients who have tongue-thrusting habits that exacerbate burning mouth syndrome symptoms, notes Jones. “Research shows improved pain scores in patients who wore the tongue protector for 15 minutes, three times a day.” Talk to your dentist or medical professional to learn if this option may be right for you.
