Burning Mouth

Patient Education: Burning Mouth Instructions

• Use toothpaste with more “natural ingredients” (avoid artificial flavors, colors, or preservatives) but make sure it still contains fluoride!
• Use a dry mouth gel or spray with or without Xylitol.
  Note: Xylitol—while safe for humans—is very dangerous for pets and needs to be kept away from them.
• Maintain a bland diet—avoid salty and spicy foods.
