Introduction: The consequences of antineoplastic treatments bring about oral implications and worsening of other lesions established prior to the oncological diagnosis, regardless of the organ affected by the tumor. Complications such as oral mucositis, oral candidiasis, trismus, xerostomia, caries, among other lesions, occur frequently and may be transient in the course of the application of cancer therapies, such as chemotherapy and radiotherapy; others prevail after completion of these therapies.
Methods: A narrative review of the literature was performed to show unification of criteria involving description of the clinical patterns of each oral complication due to oncological treatment, in relation to cancers in different locations. A bibliographic search was conducted in English and Spanish using the following descriptors: “lesiones, boca, cáncer, quimioterapia, radioterapia, complicaciones orales, antes y después, lesions, mouth cancer, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, oral complications, before and after,” on the global databases Pubmed and Scielo. In the latter, 100 articles published in a period of 15 years were selected.
Results: The majority of authors reviewed agree that a wide range of malignant tumors tend to show secondary involvement in places such as the oral cavity, mostly because of the established oncological treatment, regardless of tumor type and location.
Conclusions: The oral cavity remains susceptible to the presence of these effects, which are identified as systemic cytotoxic events in fast-changing tissues, such as the buccal mucosa.
