“…Needleman et al [30] reported that approximately half of footballers in the United Kingdom were troubled by poor oral health, and that some experienced decreased quality of life and physical performance due to poor oral health. In studies of Olympic athletes, most subjects have reported decreased performance due to poor oral health, while some have even reported being prevented from training due to problems deriving from oral and dental health impairment [2,29,31,32]. This led the International Olympic Committee to take action, and obliged it to issue calls to all relevant countries concerning oral health protection [33].…”

Objectives: .Oral health is as important to an athlete's sporting successas regular exercise and adequate nutrition. The aim of this study was to investigate the relation between oral health and sporting performance. Methods: This prospective study was carried out with male athletes. Athletes' demographic characteristics, dental care habits, number of decayed, missing or filled teeth, and sporting performance data were recorded. The Decayed Missing Filled Teeth (DMFT) index, Significant Caries index (SCI) and Plaque index (PI) were used to assess oral health. The T-Drill, ZigZag , Lateral Change of Direction (LCD) and 505 tests to assess agility, and 10-, 20-and 30-m short sprint tests were used to assess speed. The results were analyzed on SPSS software, and p values < 0.05 were regarded as significant. Results: Ninety-six athletes were included in the study. Active caries was determined in 70.8%. The mean DMFT index value was 3.9 ± 3.7, mean SCI 10.2, and mean PI 0.9 ± 0.4. DMFT was ≥ 4 in 45.8% of athletes and < 4 in 57.2%. No difference was determined between subjects with DMFT < 4 and DMFT ≥ 4 in terms of age, height, body weight, or years engaged in sports. Agility and speed tests results were superior in subjects with DMFT<4 than in those with DMFT ≥ 4, and times to completion of performance tests were shorter (p < 0.05). Pearson correlation analysis revealed that DMFT was positively correlated with agility tests [T-Drill test (r = 0.428), ZigZag test (r = 0.428), LCD test (r = 0.286) and 505 test (r = 0.529)], and speed tests [short sprint, 10-m (r = 0.309), 20-m (r = 0.336), 30-m (r = 0.449)] (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Impairment of oral health has an adverse effect on sporting performance, and this can lead to poorer results in performance tests such as agility and speed.

In time where the words of Baron de Coubertin " e important thing in life is not the triumph but the struggle" to improve the athlete's performance was not as much meaning these days where the important thing is to win. Depending on the sport practiced, milliseconds can make the podium and the health of the athlete now has vital importance. For this there was a great incentive for research to bring improvement in athletic performance, talent detection, care that result in breaking records, medals and trophies. With the results of these surveys Clubs, Associations and Institutions started to give due consideration to performance of their athletes thus providing its professional sta involved in the day to day of these in physiology, biomechanics, game analyst, nutritionists, physiotherapists, psychologists, doctors and dentists currently.e role of dentistry in the sports is important, because it provides the athlete optimal oral health conditions which in turn can contribute to achievement of optimal performance during competitions. Sports Dentistry (SD) involves the prevention, maintenance and treatment of oral and facial injuries, as well as the collection and dissemination of information on dental trauma, in addition to stimulating research 1 . It directs a duty of the dentist detect problems of the athlete, such as mouth breathing, poor positioning of the arches, and properly administer medications free of substances, that may provide the positive doping present in many painkillers. e SD is still recent in Brazil, and the Federal Council of Dentistry (FCD) does not recognize the SD as a specialty and it is not included as a compulsory subject in the curriculum o ered at most universities.Among the di erent sports, there are those which the risk of injury due to the contact or impact can Abstract Sports Dentistry (SD) acts in the prevention, maintenance and treatment of oral and facial injuries, as well as the collection and dissemination of information on dental trauma, beyond stimulus to research. Establishes as a duty for the dentist detect problems related to the athlete's stomatognathic system. This essay is based on the provided data from the literature related to SD, including defi nition, practice areas and research fi elds. To discuss the data, six areas were categorized: shares in sports dentistry; oral health of athlete; sports-related dental implications; dental-facial trauma; face shields; and mouthguards. The analyzed data show that the SD is still an underexplored fi eld of action by dentists, but it is expanding, despite not being recognized specialty by the Federal Council of Dentistry, but the Brazilian Academy of Sports Dentistry has been created with a mission to show the real importance of Dentistry in sport. The dentist should be part of the group of professionals associated with the athlete to perform periodic checks in order to ensure oral health which may contribute to athletes´performance. When impact occurs, however, it would be possible reduce the severity of the impact related to in...

The oral health provides balance that directly affects the general and psychological health. It is important that the dentist make detailed evaluation of athletes, detecting changes and conditions that may compromise performance during training and / or competition. The LCNCs have multifactorial etiology and is characterized by loss of tooth structure in the cementum-enamel junction region (neck), unrelated to the presence of caries, it is commonly found in dental practice routine. The loss of tooth structure caused by the presence of LCNCs can lead to exposure of dentinal tubules, allowing the appearance of the HD. Thus, this thesis has as main objectives to assess the prevalence of LCNCs and HD professional athletes (GA), to assess the prevalence of LCNCs and HD in the control group (CG). After approval of the CEP, we evaluated 264 professional athletes with at least 17 years and performed minimal training 10 hrs / week and 195 individuals in the control group. applied questionnaire with topics such as diet, DTM and parafunction. On examination it evaluated occlusal, periodontal factors, presence of LCNC and HD. Some of the results were: the average age of the athletes was 20.33 years, and control 23,75. GC showed most females (61.54%, p<0,001), while the GA was predominantly male (90.46%). Athletes consume more isotonic (26.52%, p<0,001), soft drinks (68.56%, p=0,010) and supplements (38.64%, p<0,001) than the GC. The prevalence of biocorrosion was 28.03% in GA and 15.38% in the control group. The lower incisors (25.75%) were the teeth most affected by HD, and the pre molars with LCNC in GA. The athletes had higher number of absences of at least one tooth (21.21%, p<0,001) compared to the control group. The GA had more change in your bite (47.43%, p<0,001) than the GC. Within the limitations of our study, it is concluded that: the prevalence of LCNC and HD athletes were 17.42% and 35.25% respectively. The prevalence of LCNC and HD in the control group was 18.97% and 48.20% respectively. Athletes had several risk factors for the development of changes, namely: isotonic intake, soft drinks and supplements; high presence of plaque; greater absence of teeth; maxillo-mandibular change, absence of canine guidance and immediate brushing after food intake acidic.
