This is an article out of my Moisture Seekers magazine.


"Q I frequently experience an intensely painful
burning and pin-prick sensation on my tongue.
Is this related to Sjgrens? Is there any treatment?
A A burning sensation is a common oral complication of Sjgrens syndrome.
The cause of a burning sensation/pin-prick sensation is frequently
related to decreased salivary flow associated with Sjgrens. Lower
salivary flow will lead to decreased lubrication and subsequently more mucosal
(i.e. tissues in mouth such as cheeks, gums and tongue) irritation and
burning especially with the tongue. As saliva has natural properties to fight
fungal/yeast infections, a decrease in salivary flow can also lead to an increased
risk of oral fungal infections. An active oral fungal infection
can manifest as mucosal burning. Other causes of
oral burning may be related to vitamin deficiencies, oral
allergies or autoimmune related oral lesions.
Successful treatment of oral burning requires the correct
diagnosis of the underlying cause of the burning.
Increasing salivary flow will benefit burning from poor
lubrication, and appropriate antifungal therapy will provide
relief for an active fungal infection. Appropriate
management can also be provided to supplement vitamins,
eliminate allergens or treatment of autoimmune
oral lesions.

Try taking folic acid for a few weeks, I have found this helpful when my mouth is sore.

i use hurricane gel from the dentist. it is thick enough to stay on the tongue and much better than liquid lidocaine. it also comes in cherry flavored. it works for me.

I also take folic acid daily and it works for me.

It is important to keep your mouth as moist as possible to prevent the mouth store. Keep some water by you. Eat a sour hard candy or chew sour gum. I find massaging the glands from bottom of ears to throat increase the saliva at least temporarily. Hugs Marilyn

I have had a sore tongue as well. Thought maybe I was just rubbing my tongue against my teeth at night. Oh hell, maybe I'll just try some KY on it. lol Just kidding. I have to laugh sometimes or I would cry instead. You guys are wonderful. Love, kristy

No sore tongue for me, but I do get mouth ulcers that are very painful. Any ideas on how to stop getting these??

i use a spray called glandosane its a synthetic saliva but it really helps stop you getting a sore mouth i get it on prescription

Have any of you tried salagen? It's been a lifesaver for me. But it's short acting...I take a 2.5 mg pill (1/2 of a 5 mg pill) every two hours. It's a pain in the butt to take that many pills, but without it I can't speak, eat, or chew. If I take to whole 5 mg pill I get terrible sweats that soak through my clothes....so 2.5 mgs at a time it is.

I've discovered an Orajel antiseptic sore mouth rinse which is helpful for my sore tongue and mouth ulcers. It stings at first but then gives me a few hours relief. Maybe that would work for you, too. I sure hope so.

Hi, my dentist gave me a sample of biotene, it came with a mouthwash that helps with dry mouth it also has a long lasting lubricant that you put right on you tongue it soothes minor irritations and the burning sensation. You should also try the biotene toothpaste it helps with the dry mouth too. I have used them all and it has really helped me. You can buy all these products over the counter with no presciption. I hope I've helped a little.
