Many experts advocate the use of Photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy in patients with cancer and demand studies of higher methodological quality such as randomized controlled clinical trials. However, there is no consensus on the most effective dosimetry that allows us to establish an effective and safe approach to treat radiotherapy-induced xerostomia in head and neck cancer survivors. Finally, recent reviews highlight the importance of determining whether or not the effects of Photobiomodulation therapy are maintained after a follow-up period.
The Photobiomodulation therapy could have positive effects on quality of life and oral health in head and neck cancer survivors post-radiotherapy. The improvement in quality of life will be maintained after a follow-up period.
