Official Title: Oral Manifestations of Leukemia and Anticancer Treatment in Childhood
Brief Summary: Before the start of the selected chemotherapy patients will be treated preventively for oral mucositis. A group will carry out the mouthwash with chlorhexidine 0.12% twice a day for five days and another will be held to damage preventive therapy (wavelength of 660nm, power 100mW and lluencia of 4 J / cm² per point, with distance of 2cm between points located on the right buccal mucosa, left buccal mucosa, hard palate, upper lip and lower lip). Patients who develop oral mucositis even after the prevention, will be divided into three groups for laser sessions with the purpose of treatment of oral mucositis. The group assignment obeyed severity of oral mucositis. Group 1 will include patients with oral mucositis grade 1. Sera used wavelength of 660nm, power 100mW and lluencia of 4 J / cm². Group 2 included patients with oral mucositis grade 2. Sera used with a wavelength of 660nm, power 100mW and lluencia of 8 J / cm². Group 3 included patients with oral mucositis grade 3 Sera used laser diode AsGaAl operating in continuous mode, with a wavelength of 790 nm, power of 100mW and fluency of 8 J / cm².
