Abstrakt: Purpose: To estimate the global prevalence of dental erosion and to evaluate whether there is scientific evidence that the use of isotonic drinks could increase the risk of this condition in athletes. Methods: This study was registered in the PROSPERO (CRD42018091545) and it was performed following the PRISMA guidelines. A broad search was conducted in the following databases: PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Virtual Health Library (Lilacs) and Grey Literature using MeSH and free terms. Manual search was also performed in the references of included studies. Articles published up to October 04, 2019 were included. Two researchers individually selected the studies according to the eligibility criteria and performed data extraction and methodological evaluation. A random effects model was adopted in the meta-analysis. Results: Nine studies were selected in which three were considered to have a moderate risk of bias and six were considered to have a low risk of bias. The results of the meta-analysis showed that the estimated global prevalence of dental erosion was 47.07% (95% CI 24.025–70.800) in athletes. It also demonstrated that there was no association between the use of isotonic drinks and dental erosion (95% CI 0.00 [− 0.07, 0.08; p = 0.95]. Conclusion: The estimated prevalence of dental erosion in athletes was considered high; however, there was no association between isotonic drink consumption and the prevalence of dental erosion.
