According to the data from the World Health Organization, approximately 14 million people are diagnosed with cancer every year, and this number is expected to increase further in the next 10 years. Multidisciplinary treatment consisting of chemotherapy, radiotherapy and surgery is applied in childhood cancers. In chemotherapy, the target is cancerous cells, but high doses of chemotherapeutic agents do not have selectivity. Intact tissue cells are also affected by this cytotoxicity. Mucositis develops in the patient, especially as a result of the mucosal cells being affected. Mucositis is defined as damage to the mucosa lining the oral cavity, pharynx, larynx, oesophagus and gastrointestinal tract due to cancer treatment. It is one of the most important side effects of both chemotherapy and radiotherapy. This study is carried out to determine the effectiveness of propolis in preventing the formation of oral mucositis due to multiple use of chemotherapeutic drugs.

| propolis | Biological | After obtaining written consent, oral identification of all participants will be performed prior to randomization. Oral diagnosis of children receiving chemotherapy will be repeated on day 0, day 5, and day 10, and the difference between the Oral Mucositis Rating Scale mean scores of the children in the groups will be examined. Oral Mucositis Assessment: Oral Mucositis Rating Scale will be used. The oral mucosa of children will be evaluated using the World Health Organization Oral Mucositis Classification. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |

| Oral mucositis grading | Oral Mucositis Assessment Scale is a classification method accepted by the World Health Organization and used all over the world. It has standard clauses that will be interpreted in the same way by all people. However, in order to ignore the differences in interpretation, multi-research evaluation will be used in the first 20 observations and the consistency between the observers will be analyzed with Kappa analysis and the follow-ups will continue. | first day of the intervention |
