liquid

Method

Details on study design:
22 patients (19 women and 3 men) classified with the burning mouth syndrome (BMS) were patch tested with a standard routine series and a 
standardized denture-dental ((meth)acrylate and metal) series. 

Results and discussion

Results:
Twenty of the 22 patients wore a complete or partial denture. None of the 22 patients showed a positive reaction to the tested methacrylates
(Methyl methacrylate, Ethyl methacrylate, 2-Hydroxyethyl methacrylate, 2-Hydroxypropyl methacrylate, Ethylene glycol dimethacrylate 2 % in pet.).
