    Abstract:
    Hospitalization of cancer patients is reduced nowadays. The dentist and the oral hygienist in dental practice are involved more and more in minimizing oral complications in cancer patients. Appropriate oral management can enhance the quality of life in patients receiving cancer radiotherapy or chemotherapy. Some of the more significant problems and their prevention or management are discussed in this paper.
