Research Abstract |
The aim of this study was to reduce the radiation mucositis on the radiotherapy for the oral cancers. First of all, we invented a new scoring system using the photo taken with an intra-oral camera and the MR image using IDEAL method. Then, we invented a new appliance of radiation shield, which was set in the mouth. The materials of the new appliance were the lead (Pb) covered with the plastics. After the impression of the patient teeth, we made a plaster model. Using the plaster model we made the new appliance according to the method of making the denture. Until now we have applied this new appliance to 12 patients and evaluated the radiation mucositis using the new scoring system above. And, it was suggested that the new appliance could reduce the radiation mucositis.
