Filter by:The goal of this study is to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of a mix of (green tea and peppermint) mouth rinse using the subjective dry mouth score as a primary objective and to assess the effect of that mix on the salivary flow rate and objective dry mouth score as a secondary objective.
The goal of this [ type of study: Clinical trial] is to test effectiveness of Hibiscus Sabdariffa L. mouth rinse using the subjective dry mouth score as a primary objective and to assess the effect of that mix on the salivary flow rate and objective dry mouth score as a secondary objective.
This is a clinical investigation to measure the changes in the oral environment resulting from a 3 month exposure to an arginine containing toothpaste. This study is a double blind, randomized controlled, parallel design. Seventy (70) male and female subjects who meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria will be enrolled in the study. Following oral health evaluations, subjects will be assigned to the treatment schedule and receive their assigned study product.
Taste problems and xerostomia (dry mouth) are common among patients with advanced cancer. These symptoms can affect the pleasure of eating and drinking, reduce dietary intake, cause low mood, and a lower quality of life. This study will explore the relationship between dry mouth and taste problems in patients with advanced cancer.
This is a multi-center, non-inferiority, open-label, randomized controlled phase III clinical trial in primary diagnosed nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients without distant metastasis. This study aims to compare the regional control, survival outcomes, radiation-related toxicities, and quality of life (QoL) of xerostomia-optimized intensity-modulated radiotherapy versus standard intensity-modulated radiotherapy in NPC patients
The objective of this study is to evaluate how well the study product, Crest Daily Whitening Serum, alleviates Xerostomia and perceived halitosis over 1 week of use.
The goal of this cluster based intervention trial is to evaluate the effect of a nurse-led patient education program on dry mouth in patients with a life-limiting condition or frailty. The Mouth Educational Program (MEP) is a nurse-led patient education program, in which trained nurses use current clinical, palliative dry mouth guidelines in a structured manner to discuss causes, consequences and interventions with the patients and to create an appropriate treatment plan. This intervention will be compared to a control group receiving care as usual. Therefore, the main question it aims to answer is: Does a nurse-led patient education program reduce dry mouth complaints in patients with a life-limiting condition or frailty? Participants will be asked to answer questionnaires and, when part of the intervention group, partake in the Mouth Educational Program (MEP).
This study will assess the efficacy and safety of bilateral intra-parotid administration of AAV2-hAQP1 in adults with Grade 2 or Grade 3 radiation-induced late xerostomia.
The goal of this clinical research study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of injecting certain cells that you produce in your bone marrow called mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) into your salivary glands. Participants will have head and neck cancer that was treated with radiation therapy, and in this study will: - Undergo a collection of bone marrow using a needle; - Donate saliva; - Undergo a salivary gland ultrasound; and, - Complete questionnaires that ask about dry mouth Participants can expect to be in this study for up to 30 months.
Patients undergoing hematopoietic cell transplantation (HSCT) receive high doses of chemotherapy with or without radiotherapy to eradicate the underlying disease, which induces a series of adverse effects, including in the oral cavity. Among the most common oral lesions is oral mucositis (OM), which has been associated with greater morbidity and important biological and economic impact.Currently, photobiomodulation (PBM) with intraoral application has been recommended for the prevention of OM, however, few studies have evaluated the impact of its extraoral use.
