2d , Armas Ana del Carmen 1d, e RESUMEN Objetivo: Evaluar la prevalencia de erosión dental entre jugadores de baloncesto que refieren el consumo de bebidas carbonatadas. Materiales y métodos: se plantea un estudio transversal en una población de 60 basquetbolistas entre 8 a 18 años, que realicen actividad física más de 3 veces a la semana y que consuman bebidas energizantes más de 3 veces a la semana, sin síndromes o enfermedad sistémica ni discapacidad física o intelectual. Los participantes, fueron examinados clínicamente por un único examinador en cuanto a sus dientes anteriores superiores a través de índice de erosión dental BEWE y también por un cuestionario sobre conocimiento y consumo de bebidas ácidas. Resultados: se observó una alta prevalencia de erosión dental (56,6%) en la población evaluada, el 41,67% de participantes prefiere consumir bebidas hidratantes luego de la jornada de entrenamiento, con un alto porcentaje de bebidas carbonatadas al día; donde el 71,67% conoce los efectos negativos del consumo de estas bebidas.
