Resumo

Assess the regimens of photobiomodulation therapy in clinical signal e symptoms of oral mucositis in patients with head and neck carcer during antineoplastic treatment. A retrospective search of medical records was carried out between the years 2016 to 2019 with patients diagnosed with head and neck cancer under prophylactic regimen with photobiomodulation therapy. Were collected demographic data, risk factors, oral condition, number of photobiomodulation therapy sessions, degree of mucositis, medical-hospital information. No statistically significant relationship was found between prophylactic photobiomodulation therapy and oral mucositis. But patients who used both prophylactic and therapeutic regimens were less chance to have severe lesions of oral mucositis. And the patients who underwent chemotherapy were more likely to have severe lesions. The absence of a statistically significant association between the prophylactic regimen of photobiomodulatation therapy contradicts the clinical evidence. But the overlap between the two regimens, therapeutic and prophylactic, treated severe mucositis and is in accordance with the literature. Future research to resolve this contradiction must be designed in a prospective models.
