Sodium Bicarbonate Group (Usual care)
In the clinic where the research was conducted, a guideline is routinely applied for the care of oral mucositis in line with the stages of oral mucositis. Sodium bicarbonate is used in line with this guideline. The first group, the control group, will receive routine oral care in the clinic with sodium bicarbonate. Oral care will be applied 4 times a day for 14 days.
Saline Group
The second group, the experimental group, will first receive oral care routinely applied in the clinic. Then, oral care will be given in the form of 5 ml mouthwash with saline. Oral care will be applied 4 times a day for 14 days.
Black Mulberry Syrup Group
The third group, the experimental group, will first receive oral care routinely applied in the clinic. Then black mulberry syrup will be applied. Then, oral care will be given in the form of 5 ml mouthwash with black mulberry syrup. Oral care will be applied 4 times a day for 14 days.
