[Dental anomalies in pediatric patients undergoing radiotherapy: a preliminary study of a population of 15 subjects].
Therapy of some oncological and hematological pathologies obtain great advantages from radiotherapy. As the prognosis for childhood oncological and hematological pathology has improved, more attention has been focused on the effects of therapy on the developing child. Our study wishes to point out the effects on the development of teeth in patients radio-treated during different odontogenesis phases with different exposition and quantity of radiation, to make correlation between the possible damage and radiation dose.
