Summary
This study tests whether high-level laser therapy can help manage oral mucositis—painful mouth sores—in children under 18 who are having a bone marrow transplant. Fourteen participants will receive either laser treatment or standard mouth care (chlorhexidine and sodium bicarbonate rinses). The main goal is to see if the laser reduces sore severity and pain over 11 days.

What this could mean

high-level laser therapy (device)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a non-drug way to reduce mouth sore pain and severity in children after transplant.
What could go wrong
This is a very small early trial with only 14 children, so results may not apply to everyone. The laser might not work better than standard mouth care.
