    INTRODUCTION: Dental injuries are considered a public health problem, as they cause functional, aesthetic, psychosocial and financial damage to the individual. They are the intersection point between dentistry and sports. OBJECTIVE: To verify the prevalence of dental trauma in wrestlers and its possible associations with sociodemographic and sport-related variables in acapital city in the southeastern region of Brazil. METHODOLOGY: This is an observational and cross-sectional study conducted with 284 athletes (coaches, professionals, semi-professionals, and amateurs) from 17 academies offering combat sports in Vitória-ES, Brazil. Data collection took place in October and November 2024 using a questionnaire containing sociodemographic information, access to oral health services, sport modality, occurrence of dental trauma during combat sports, use of mouthguards, and guidance on trauma. Descriptive and statistical analyses were performed using the chi-square test (p<0.05) and Odds Ratio to verify the strength of association between the variables. RESULTS: Most participants were male (n=203; 71.48%), single (n=142; 50%), under 25 years old (n=75; 26.41%), and practitioners of Jiu-Jitsu (n=79; 27.82%) and kickboxing (n=77; 27.11%). Of the athletes who suffered dental trauma during the fight (n=19; 6.69%), reported having experienced it once (n=9; 47.37%). The predominant type was enamel fracture (n=7; 36.84%), in the anterior teeth (n=9; 47.36%). Most were not using a mouthguard when they suffered the dental trauma (n=15; 78.95%), even though they considered its use important (n=229; 80.63%), and had not received guidance on the subject (n=237; 83.45%). A significant association was observed between age group and the occurrence of dental trauma. CONCLUSION: The highest prevalences of traumatic dental injuries were in Capoeira and Taekwondo, associated with the age group of 37 years or older. Furthermore, practitioners reported not using mouthguards and there was low levels of guidance on dental trauma
