OPEN REGISTRY (LIMITED): Chemotherapy Oral Manifestations and Dental Awareness Among Parents

The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) recommends pediatric oncology/hematology that Pediatric dentists must be involved in the treatment process from the moment cancer is diagnosed. This should be carried out by having a preventive and dental care plan developed based on the patient’s needs before any cancer treatment is initiated.

The aim of the study is primarily to report oral complications and manifestations during chemotherapy treatment in pediatric cancer patients and raise the awareness of their parents on these manifestations thus proper interventions can be carried out to prevent more serious problems.
