- Brief Summary
Introduction: There are several manifestations in the oral mucosa resulting from antineoplastic treatments by chemo (QT) or radiotherapy (RT). In this study we will collect the variables referring to oral mucositis (OM), radiodermatitis, osteonecrosis of the jaws (ONJ), hyposalivation and xerostomia, dysgeusia, pain, oral candidiasis (opportunistic infection), trismus, quality of life, oral hygiene.
MO and hyposalivation, which are related to damage to the salivary glands, are the most common manifestations, and ONJ is the most difficult to treat. The dentist can play an important role in prevention and treatment these oral lesions, directly influencing the patient's quality of life and adherence to antineoplastic treatment.
Objectives: The main objective is to evaluate the efficacy of the intervention, using LLL phototherapy and topical Vit E, in the OM. And the intervention through LLL phototherapy and LPRP in the ONJ. These interventions will be performed by dentists during antineoplastic medical treatment.
Material and methods: clinical trial, randomized, with balanced randomization, single-blind (for the evaluator of the results) with 2 experimental arms and a control group, carried out in a single center. Group 1, intervention with LLL phototherapy, Group 2, intervention with application of topical Vit E and Group 3, mouthwash with 0.12% chlorhexidine (usual clinical information). 360 patients will participate in this study from the Units of Oncology Medicine, Radiotetaphic Medicine and Oral Medicine, Oral Surgery and Implantology at the University of Santiago de Compostela. The segment of the patients will be given, an initial visit and returns every day that hears the application of antineoplastic treatment for the group of LLL phototherapy, returns of 15 days, one month, three months, six months, nine months and one year. In these return visits, evaluations and questionnaires will be carried out regarding all the variables that we will collect.
Predictable results: If the application of laser phototherapy or topical Vit E contributes to the cessation, reduction or improvement of the clinical evolution of the manifestation of oral lesions, these treatments could be immediately implemented in our Oral Medicine unit and could lay the foundations for its implementation in different public centers and private.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Treatment of osteonecrosis of the jaws with LLL phototherapy, evaluation using the MASCC scale - stage 1 to 3 - Chemotherapy 6 months The main objective is to evaluate the efficacy of LLL phototherapy in the treatment of osteonecrosis of the jaws in patients with bone necrosis after receiving chemotherapy. The result will be determined by the percentage of patients who are cured of osteonecrosis after sequestromia and phototherapy, for this which we will use the " Multinational Association of Supportive Care in Cancer/International Society of Oral Oncology (MASCC/ISOO/ASCO) Clinical Practice Guideline on Medication-Related Osteonecrosis of the Jaw" will be used for classification of bone necroses. Stage refers to the severity. Stages 1 through 3 (the most severe).
It will be compared to those who receive sequestromia and LPRF or just sequestromia.Prevention of osteonecrosis of the jaws with LLL phototherapy, evaluation using Notani scale - grade 1 to 3 - Radiotherapy 6 months The main objective is to assess whether LLL phototherapy works to prevent bone necrosis of the jaws in patients who need dental extractions and who will still receive radiotherapy. The result will be determined by the percentage of patients who do not develop bone necrosis after extraction and phototherapy, the Notani scale, will be used for classification of bone necroses. Grade refers to the severity. Grades 1 through 3 (the most severe).

The result will be determined by the percentage of patients who are cured of osteonecrosis after sequestromia and phototherapy, for which we will use the Notoni Scale. Grade refers to the severity. Grades 1 through 3 (the most severe).
Prevention of oral mucositis with LLL phototherapy, evaluation using NCI-CTC mucositis scale of the "National Cancer Institute" - grade 1 to 5 - Chemotherapy 3 months The main objective is to evaluate whether LLL phototherapy acts on preventing oral mucositis in patients who will receive chemotherapy. The result will be determined by the percentage of patients who reduce the intensity of the manifestation and/or do not develop oral mucositis, for this we will use the NCI-CTC mucositis scale of the "National Cancer Institute". Grade refers to the severity. Grades 1 through 5 (the most severe).
Will be compared to those who receive topical Vit. E or chlorhexidine mouthwash, in the prevention arms of the study.Prevention of osteonecrosis of the jaws with LLL phototherapy, evaluation using the MASCC scale - stage 1 to 3 - Chemotherapy 6 months The main objective is to assess whether LLL phototherapy works to prevent bone necrosis of the jaws in patients who need dental extractions and who will still receive chemotherapy.

It will be compared with those who receive LPRF after extraction or only extraction, in the prevention arms of the study.Treatment of oral mucositis with LLL phototherapy, evaluation using NCI-CTC mucositis scale of the "National Cancer Institute" - grade 1 to 5 - Chemotherapy 3 months The main objective is to evaluate the efficacy of LLL phototherapy in the LLL phototherapy treating. The result will be determined by percentage of patients who develop oral mucositis after the first 10 days of treatment with chemotherapy, and who receive phototherapy, and have rapid regression of oral mucositis, for this we will use the NCI-CTC mucositis scale of the "National Cancer Institute". Grade refers to the severity. Grades 1 through 5 (the most severe).
Will be compared with patients receiving topical Vit. E or chlorhexidine mouthwash.Prevention of oral mucositis with LLL phototherapy, evaluation using NCI-CTC mucositis scale of the "National Cancer Institute" - grade 1 to 5 - Radiotherapy 3 months The main objective is to evaluate whether LLL phototherapy acts on preventing oral mucositis in patients who will receive radiotherapy.
