Summary
This study tests a new, low-cost device to help people who have trouble opening their mouth fully after radiation treatment for head and neck cancer. The device is a jaw stretcher with sensors that measure pressure and how wide the mouth opens, giving real-time feedback. About 35 adults with radiation-related trismus will use the device for 6 weeks to see if it improves mouth opening and quality of life.
