Mouthwash with laser for preventing mouth sores in stem cell transplant
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests whether a special mouthwash made from copaiba (a natural oil) plus low-level laser therapy can prevent mouth sores caused by high-dose chemotherapy before a stem cell transplant. It might help reduce pain and trouble eating during your transplant treatment.
