Are you saying/implying that the BMS is a result of or caused by having had the dentures put in?
I hadn't heard of this condition before, but there seems to be quite a bit of information on the web. My first thought before even looking was that it sounds like something involving the peripheral nervous system, and sure enough...
Another treatment that seems to work for some is Alpha Lipoic Acid (with no addiction/dependence risk).
Many people with Peripheral Neuropathy take a form of this - Stabilized R-Lipoic Acid. When taking this form, only 100 mg is as effective as 600 mg of Alpha Lipoic Acid.
In the event we're spinning our wheels here, it might be helpful to tell us a bit more (start a separate thread for clarity) about what you know about your BMS (primary/secondary, suspected cause(s), tests, things you've already tried, etc.)
