Shining a Light on Xerostomia: Photobiomodulation for Clinical Relief Upcoming
Xerostomia is a common oral health condition characterized by chronic dry mouth. One in five people suffer from this condition, often caused by certain medications, radiation therapy, chemotherapy drugs, or other underlying health conditions. Traditional treatments include prescription medications, stimulators or surgical intervention; however, recent research shows that non-invasive photobiomodulation (PBM) has positive effects on xerostomia patient outcomes.1
In this webinar, host Dr. Chris Carraway welcomes special guest Dr. Juliana de Almeida Barros, DDS, MS as she explores the innovative application of PBM in the clinical management of xerostomia. Dr. Barros will delve into the mechanisms of PBM and how low-level light therapy can effectively stimulate tissue regeneration and alleviate xerostomia symptoms, emphasizing evidence-based practices and integrating theoretical knowledge with practical clinical techniques. Attendees will gain comprehensive insights into the intersection of PBM and xerostomia management, enhancing their proficiency in delivering patient-centered care.
Key Learning Objectives:
Fundamentals of photobiomodulation and its mechanisms
Discuss various PBM devices, dosimetry, and treatment protocols for xerostomia
Summarize the existing research and clinical studies related to PBM and xerostomia
Clinical application of PBM in xerostomia management
Integrating PBM into patient-centered dental practice
