Homeodent

Homeodent is a phytopharmaceutical mouthwash preparation developed by Boiron, primarily evaluated for the prevention and treatment of oral mucositis in patients undergoing radiotherapy for head and neck cancers. It is a botanical-based formulation typically containing extracts such as *Calendula officinalis*, *Hamamelis virginiana*, *Plantago major*, and *Cochlearia armoracia*. These ingredients are traditionally used for their anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, and healing properties. In clinical trials, it has been compared against standard care (such as sodium bicarbonate mouthwash) to assess its efficacy in reducing the incidence of severe (Grade 3 or higher) radiation-induced oral mucositis.
