Many women in menopause experience discomfort in the oral cavity — burning, dysesthesia, xerostomia, taste changes, which lead to a reduction in the quality of life.Aim: to identify clinical and psychological factors associated with the development of burning mouth syndrome in menopausal women.Material and methods. Were examined 67 women aged 45–67 years. Assessment of oral pain performed using the Visual analog scale (VAS). Assessment of dry mouth symptoms severity performed using the Challacombe Scale of Clinical Oral Dryness (CSCOD). Psychometric tests was carried out with Spielberger’s Anxiety Test, Montgomery–Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE). The Psychological stress measure-25 scale was also used to assess the impact of stress on somatic, behavioral, and emotional indicators of life. The quality of life was measured using the Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14).Results. Clinically, burning mouth syndrome in menopausal women manifested with various oral symptoms include paresthesias and pain in the tongue, oral cavity, as well as xerostomia and taste disorders. Painful sensations in the tongue developed 1–3 years after the menopause onset and was preceded by stressful life events. The pain scores on the VAS was 63.1 ± 11.8 mm. Depressive disorders were characterized by an average level of personal and situational anxiety, instability to stressful influences. The quality of life assessment in menopausal women using the OHIP-14 scale, the total score was 17.1 ± 5.21 points and corresponded to the sufficient quality of oral health.Conclusion. Burning mouth syndrome and neuropsychiatric disorders (anxiety, asthenia, depression, phobia, sleep disorders) in menopausal women are pathophysiologically related conditions.
