First seen Jan 25, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 16 times

Summary

This study tests whether a custom mouth splint (Essix appliance) can reduce pain and improve saliva flow in people with Burning Mouth Syndrome, a condition causing long-lasting mouth pain. Twelve adults who have already found relief from the splint will wear it on some days and not on others, then report their pain levels. Saliva samples will also be collected to look for changes in proteins linked to inflammation or stress.
