Aim To perform a systematic review and meta-analysis to establish if fever is associated with primary tooth eruption.Materials and methods Literature searches involved Pubmed, MEDLINE, Web of Science, Scopus and Cochrane. The potentially relevant studies had the full text analyzed. Only studies concerning fever during eruption period of primary tooth in humans were included. Papers in non-English language, and papers that included syndromic patients or patients with any disease were excluded. The meta-analyses were performed with Review Manager (version 5.3). Only studies that reported the results as dichotomous data were analyzed with Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel test in meta-analysis function of Review Manager 5.3. The fixed-effects model was used to evaluate the association between tooth eruption and fever.Results Search identified 83 potential studies. After exclusion of the duplicated studies, or were not related to the criteria of inclusion only 6 studies were selected for the systematic review. In the overall meta-analysis, no association was found [OR = 1.32 (0.88-1.96)] between fever and primary tooth eruption. However, in the subgroup analysis, when the method used to measure fever was the rectal temperature there was an association [OR = 2.82 (1.55-5.14)] between fever and primary tooth eruption.Conclusion There are few suitable studies in the literature regarding the association between primary tooth eruption and fever. However, our study found an association between fever and primary tooth eruption only when rectal temperature was performedHow to cite this article Nemezio MA, De Oliveira KMH, Romualdo PC, Queiroz AM, Paula-e-Silva FWG, Silva RAB, Kuchler EC.

“…Existen estudios publicados previamente que también apoyan esta hipótesis, que concluyen que esta medición no se puede utilizar para la detección de la fiebre en la toma de decisiones clínicas 11 . Cabe destacar que este estudio se realizó para evaluar los métodos usados para medir la temperatura corporal en servicios de urgencia, que no necesariamente es lo mismo que la temperatura que se mide fuera del hospital por personas no capacitadas; en este escenario la dificultad del uso e interpretación del termó-metro de mercurio rectal son suficientes para no recomendarlo 15 .…”
