Summary

This study evaluates response of abnormal low salivary flow rate to transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) in diabetic type 2 patients. Response of saliva monitored for all participants receiving only one session of 5-minute extraoral TENS on bilateral parotid glands.

Conditions

  • Diabetes type2
  • Hyposalivation

Interventions

DEVICE
