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.

Artigo de revisãoReview ARticle ARtículo de Revisión RESUMOO objetivo deste trabalho é inserir definitivamente a odontologia no contexto do esporte de alto rendimento, com o firme propósito de estabelecer uma linguagem comum com a medicina do esporte. Consideramos que as práticas clínicas aplicadas a atletas de alto desempenho devem obedecer a regras e momentos adequados, levando-se em conta o contexto das demandas relativas aos atletas de ponta, ou seja, o desgaste fisiológico e o processo adaptativo ao sobre-esforço, e todas as suas consequências. A odontologia dentro dos clubes esportivos promoveria a saúde bucal e sistêmica dos atletas, controlando lesões bucais em integração com outros departamentos da área médica, equilíbrio hídrico, controle dietético, sobretreinamento e uso de energéticos e isotônicos. Quando as ações educativas forem inseridas desde a infância nas práticas esportivas, teremos, certamente, menor número de problemas bucais com mais necessidades preventivas que curativas. Sugerimos para as categorias de base, para atletas em formação, a inclusão de um odontopediatra nos clubes esportivos, como um profissional de importante atuação em saúde.Descritores: odontologia; esportes; infecção focal; saúde bucal; atletas; periodontia. ABSTRACT The purpose of this work is to definitively insert Dentistry in the context of high performance sports, with the main goal of establishing a common language with Sports Medicine. We consider that the clinical practices applied to high performance athletes should obey appropriate rules and moments, taking into account the context of the demands on the top athletes, i.e., the physiological wastage and the adaptive process to over-effort, and all its consequences. Dentistry inside the sports clubs would promote the oral and systemic health of athletes, controlling oral lesions in- RESUMEN El objetivo de este trabajo es, sin duda introducir la odontología en el contexto del deporte de alto rendimiento, con el firme propósito de establecer un lenguaje común con la medicina deportiva. Creemos que la práctica clínica aplicada a los atletas de alto rendimiento deben obedecer las reglas y los momentos apropiados, teniendo en cuenta el contexto de las demandas relacionadas con atletas de alto rendimiento, es decir, el desgaste fisiológico y el proceso de adaptación a un exceso de ejercicio, y todas sus consecuencias. La odontología, en los clubes deportivos promovería la salud oral y sistémica de los atletas mediante el control de las lesiones orales, interactuando con otros departamentos médicos, el balance hídrico, control de la dieta, el sobreentrenamiento y el consumo de bebidas energéticas e isotónicas. Cuando se introducen actividades educacionales desde la infancia en las prácticas deportivas, sin duda vamos a tener problemas dentales menores, con mayor necesidad de prevención en lugar de curación. Sugerimos a las categorías básicas, para los atletas en formación, incluir un dentista pediátrico en los clubes deportivos, como profesional de importante acción rela...
