What is Oral Mucositis?

Oral mucositis (OM) is one of the most common side effects of cancer treatment

OM happens when the oral mucosa layer in your mouth becomes damaged—causing painful mouth sores.

Nearly half of Americans diagnosed with cancer malignancies will suffer from some degree of mucositis

OM affects ~90% of patients receiving chemo- and radiation therapy for head and neck cancer

19% of patients receiving chemo- and radiation therapy for head and neck cancer who have OM may end up hospitalized

Mouth sores caused by OM can impact:

Swallowing

Eating

Drinking
