Study Arms (2)

Dentoxol

EXPERIMENTAL

Dentoxol® is a proprietary mouthrinse that has anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial and analgesic effects. Subjects will use Dentoxol® mouthrinse 5 times each day, starting on the first day of radiation therapy and ending on the last day of radiation therapy.

Device: Dentoxol

Placebo

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

The placebo rinse will be identical in color, taste and consistency as the Dentoxol rinse and will be packaged in identical bottles with the same labels. Subjects will use placebo mouthrinse 5 times each day, starting on the first day of radiation therapy and ending on the last day of radiation therapy.
