First seen May 07, 2026 · Last updated Jun 23, 2026 · Updated 8 times
Summary
This study will test whether ozone gas injections into the salivary glands can increase saliva production and improve quality of life in 100 people who developed dry mouth after head and neck radiotherapy. Participants will receive 12 weekly ozone injections or no treatment, and their saliva flow and symptoms will be measured before, during, and after the sessions. The goal is to find a new way to relieve a common and uncomfortable side effect of cancer treatment.
