Title: Nonsurgical management of head and neck cancer patients. Author: Peterson DE, D'Ambrosio JA. Journal: Dent Clin North Am; 1994 Jul; 38(3):425-45. PubMed ID: 7926196. Abstract: This article has reviewed selected oral complications that can develop in the head and neck cancer radiation patient. Many of these complications can be prevented by treating diseased oral sites before initiation of cancer therapy. In addition, cancer treatment can often cause changes in oral tissues that require long-term management. The dentist can thus play an important role in the overall care of these critically ill patients.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
