Abstract
Objective: This literature review aims to determine how stress impacts oral health and the different pathologies it can generate. It will also make people aware of the adverse effects so they can prevent them. Materials and methods: Scientific articles, bibliographic reviews, and longitudinal studies were searched in repositories such as Google Scholar, Scielo, and PubMed. The inclusion criteria were articles in English and Spanish from 2015 to the present year. The exclusion criteria were outdated texts and articles that didn't have relevant information on the impact of stress on oral health. Conclusions: This literature review shows how stress affects oral health in many ways, leading to a poor lifestyle and causing adverse effects on the oral cavity and all the human organism.
