Key Points

• The study aims to identify frailty markers in older adults suffering from burning mouth syndrome (BMS).
• Utilized the SUNFRAIL+ model for assessment.
• Examined clinical markers of frailty among older adults with BMS.
• Supported multidisciplinary intervention strategies.
• Older adults with BMS exhibit a higher presence of clinical frailty markers.
• The SUNFRAIL+ model effectively identifies these vulnerabilities.
• Early and multidisciplinary interventions are necessary for this group.
