RESUMEN
El síndrome de boca urente (SBU) es una condición enigmática porque la intensidad de los síntomas rara vez se corresponde con los signos clínicos de la enfermedad. Los síntomas incluyen ardor bucal, boca seca, dolor, cambios en los hábitos alimenticios, graves síntomas de la menopausia, y problemas no específicos de salud, entre otros. SBU es más frecuente en las mujeres posmenopáusicas con relación mujer/hombre de 71. La etiología del SBU es multifactorial, como los cambios hormonales (menopausia), las carencias nutricionales y alteraciones del gusto por nombrar algunos. SBU es un reto con respecto al diagnóstico y al manejo. El presente artículo analiza algunos de los acuerdos recientes de la etiopatogenia de SBU, así como el papel de la gestión farmacoterapeutica en este trastorno.
ABSTRACT
Burning mouth syndrome (BMS) is an enigmatic condition because the intensity of symptoms rarely corresponds to the clinical signs of the disease. Symptoms include oral burning, dry mouth, pain, changes in eating habits, severe menopausal symptoms, and non specific health problems etc. BMS is most prevalent in postmenopausal women with female male ratio of 71. The etiology of BMS is multifactorial such as hormonal changes (menopause), nutritional deficiencies and taste disturbances to name a few. BMS is a challenge to diagnose and manage. The present article discusses some of the recent understanding of etiopathogenesis of BMS as well as the role of pharmacotherapeutic management in this disorder.
