I used the baking soda/ salt mixes to cleanse and heal my mouth during radiation and I used it frequently, I used a waterpik on low to Clem out any guck in my mouth as well. For me the manuka honey staved off mucositis until the last 3 days of radiation! It's worked for others too... But it' doesnt work for everyone. Make sure you clear any meds your dentist has given you - with your RO -  its best to make sure they all know hats going on.  good Luck and take care.
