DA0F.0 Burning mouth syndrome

International Classification of Diseases for Mortality and Morbidity Statistics, 11th Revision, v2025-01


Chronic burning mouth pain is chronic orofacial pain with an intraoral burning or dysaesthetic sensation that recurs for more than two hours per day on 50 % of the days over more than three months, without evident causative lesions on clinical investigation and examination. It is characterised by significant emotional distress (anxiety, anger/frustration or depressed mood) or interference with orofacial functions such as eating, yawning, speaking etc. Chronic burning mouth pain is multifactorial: biological, psychological and social factors contribute to the pain condition. The diagnosis is appropriate independently of identified biological or psychological contributors unless another diagnosis would better account for the presenting symptoms.
