Plain-language summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare between the Effect of Using Conventional and Digital Oral Positional Radiation Stent on Healthy tissues, salivary PH. The main question it aims to answer are: Does the difference in manufacturing method affect on Healthy tissues, salivary PH. Participants will use radiation positioning stent during radiotherapy sessions Two groups will be compared * Group A: OPRS was constructed according to the conventional technique. * Group B: OPRS was constructed digitally using CAD /CAM technology. to evaluate Dosimetric analysis to quantify the radiation dose in OARs, PH of saliva measurement and Mucositis assessment.
