Management of oral mucositis focuses on symptom relief and preventing complications. Strategies include:
Maintaining good oral hygiene to reduce the risk of infection Using topical anesthetics or mouth rinses to alleviate pain Applying protective coatings to shield the mucous membranes Ensuring adequate nutrition and hydration Using systemic pain relief if necessary
In some cases, advanced therapies such as low-level laser therapy (LLLT) or the use of growth factors may be employed to promote healing.
