Kindly consult a dentist in person for further suggestion. We need more investigations with clinical examination to decide upon treatment. Apply lidocaine ? 2% gel for burning tongue. Candid gel for white patches.

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. Leukoplakia: this condition causes white patches to form on the inside of your cheeks, along your gums, and sometimes on your tongue. You can get leukoplakia if you smoke or chew tobacco. Excess alcohol use is another cause. The white patches are usually harmless. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
