ABSTRACT:Introduction: Despite their frequent consumption, studies on oral cavity effects of sports supplements that have shown a positive effect on health or performance are scarce.
Methodology: Current literature review in the dental, medical and public health fields was carried out using the following databases: Pubmed, MedLine and Biblioteca UANL. Whey protein, creatine, magnesium and beta alanine were used from which those framed in the dates 2017-2022 were selected.
Results: Whey protein: When interacting with salivary proteins, they remove the lubricating saliva layer of the mouth and can directly influence the epithelial tissue; in acidic conditions they exhibit astringency which is perceived as increased oral friction or roughness. Creatine: Exhibits non-energy related properties, contributing as a possible direct and indirect antioxidant and eliciting anti-inflammatory effects. Magnesium: In the oral cavity, low dietary intake of magnesium or deficiency is associated with the prevalence of periodontitis. Beta Alanine: The only reported side effect is paresthesia, this can be attenuated by using lower divided doses (1.6 g) or by using a sustained release formulation.
Conclusion: It is important to investigate in the initial questioning of patients in the dental office about the possible use of sports nutrition supplements, since some of them could have repercussions on systemic and oral health. Its use should be taken hand in hand with a specialist since the recommended doses could vary depending on age, gender, requirement and general condition.
