8 participants will be selected for each group, in a total of 24 divided into three groups. Patients, research subjects, will be randomized into 3 different groups, according to the form of
treatment
Group 2 (G2) – Salivary stimulation through electrical stimulation
Group 3 (G3) - Association of both therapies: low power laser + electrical stimulation. After screening, patients will receive random numbers distributed by computer program. In sequence, eight number

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| It is expected that the treatment of salivary stimulation with electrical methods, in association or not with the devices, provides an increase in salivary flow, at rest and stimulated, in type 2 diabetic patients | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| It is estimated that the increase in flow provides an improvement in the quality of life of patients in order to reduce complaints of hyposalivation and xerostomia | — |
