Daily oral muscle physical therapy, or the administration of antidepressants have been reported as effective therapy for occlusal<unk>  patients. Tooth grinding, and the replacement or removal of all dental work should be avoided in patients with occlusal<unk> , despite the frequent requests for further surgery often made by these patients. Antidepressants are also often prescribed for scalp<unk> . Prakash et al. found that many patients with burning mouth syndrome (BMS), one variant of occlusal<unk> , also report painful sensations in other parts of the body. Many of the patients with BMS met the classification of restless leg syndrome (RLS). About half of these patients also had a family history of RLS. These results suggest that some BMS symptoms may be caused by the same pathway as RLS in some patients, indicating that dopaminergic drugs regularly used to treat RLS may be effective in treating BMS as well.
