RESUMO:

Cancer is a major problem and is the second cause of death in Brazil. One of the main and most frequent treatment modalities is radiotherapy and chemotherapy, which can be performed alone or in combination. However, administration of chemotherapy and radiation are highly cytotoxic to body cells, inducing oral mucosa lesions in a short and acute period. These occur in 20% to 40% of patients receiving chemotherapy and / or radiotherapy. Laser phototherapy seems to be an efficient, viable, painless and low cost method for tissue repair, and thus the technology can be made available to all society, equally and fairly, in compliance with the ethical principles of the Unified Health System (SUS). Thus, this study aims to evaluate and analyze the effectiveness of this technology in patients diagnosed with mucositis secondary to antineoplastic treatment. A cross-sectional observational study was performed on patients treated at the Laser Clinic of the School of Dentistry of the Federal University of Bahia (FOUFBA), from 2003 to 2018. Through a database, inclusion and exclusion criteria were applied and selected. for analysis 41 patients and 75 cycles. Red diode composite laser (630 nm), power density = 24 mW, with a 20-30 J / cm² scan and 1 - 3 J / cm² of additional irradiation at and around the focal point of the lesion were used. The protocol instituted as 01 cycle, the accomplishment of 12 sessions, distributed in 03 weekly sessions, with intervals between sessions of 48 hours. Results indicated that more than 50% of the sample benefited from phototherapy, obtaining asymptomatic outcome or improvement, as well as middle-aged patients (41 to 60 years) and who had more sessions (p = 0.002). However, individuals who underwent combined therapies (chemotherapy and radiotherapy) to treat cancer had a higher dropout rate or remained symptomatic (p = 0.002); The same outcomes were observed for those patients who reported the use of more than one drug (p = 0.005). It was concluded that, through an individualized protocol and specific parameters, laser phototherapy is able to improve the clinical condition. mucositis, staging or stopping the most severe condition of the disease and improving the quality of life of these patients.
