Your starting plan
6–10 visits • weekly. This is a preliminary care plan, not an average time to heal or a guaranteed result.
What to expect
Possible improvements in mouth comfort; effects vary and may need maintenance.
After treatment
Use clinician-approved saliva and hydration strategies; maintain dental care.
How we track progress
Dryness, swallowing, eating and nighttime waking.
After 2–4 treatments
We will review your response and daily function, then refine your timeline, visit frequency and next steps.
When to seek medical care
Mouth sores with fever, swallowing trouble or dehydration warrant prompt care.
Acupuncture is supportive care. It does not replace medical diagnosis, necessary treatment or emergency services.
