Radiation therapy of the head and neck frequently results in serious and sometimes unavoidable changes to orofacial structures, particularly for children. Acute and chronic complications have a great impact on their oral function and quality of life. This paper provides an overview of the side effect...
Basic principles of radiobiology have prevailed in understanding late effects of therapeutic radiation. Decreasing the volume of normal tissue treated, decreasing dose, and decreasing the fraction size of irradiation during a course of radiotherapy all c
