Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-4040-7732 Differences in oral health status in elite athletes according to sport modalities 2021 Access copy available to the general public Unrestricted Oral health status may affect physical and sports performance. The purpose of this study was to assess the oral health status and oral health habits of elite athletes according to the performed sports type. A sample of 186 elite athletes divided into individual sports (n = 74; 53 men and 21 women; 24.9 ± 9.3 years) and team sports (n = 112; 97 men and 15 women; 24.5 ± 4.8 years) participated in the study. The decayed, missing, and filled teeth index (DMFT), the oral health impact profile (OHIP), and the diet assessment of caries risk (DACR) were evaluated to assess their oral health status. Athletes in individual modalities had a lower number in total teeth, healthy teeth, and restoration index (p < 0.05). Furthermore, this group showed a greater number of missing (p < 0.001) and decayed teeth (p < 0.05) and a greater DMFT index (p < 0.001). A relationship between sports modality and prevalence of malocclusions (p < 0.01), periodontal plaque (p < 0.05), and the habit of consuming energy drinks (p < 0.05) was also highlighted. Elite athletes who compete in individual sports presented a worse oral situation. info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 3.889 2021 ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES 57 / 128 = 0.445 2021 Q2 T2 ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES 133 / 279 = 0.477 2021 Q2 T2 GREEN & SUSTAINABLE SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY 35 / 47 = 0.745 2021 Q3 T3 GREEN & SUSTAINABLE SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY 7 / 9 = 0.778 2021 Q4 T3 0.664 2021 Energy Engineering and Power Technology 2021 Q1 Renewable Energy, Sustainability and the Environment 2021 Q1 Management, Monitoring, Policy and Law 2021 Q1 Geography, Planning and Development 2021 Q1 5.0 2021 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Monticelli F.
