Abstract: BACKGROUND: Adverse reactions to drugs are common and may have a variety of clinical presentations in the oral cavity. They are harmful and unintended responses to a medical product. As newer therapeutic agents are approved, it is likely that more adverse drug events will be encountered. The extent of adverse drug reactions is unknown; however, because a lot of them are asymptomatic, many are believed to go unnoticed. Their pathogenesis, especially of the mucosal reactions, is largely unknown and appears to involve complex interactions between the drug, other medications, the patient’s underlying disease, genetics and lifestyle factors. AIM: to describe the most common adverse drug reactions that dentists may encounter in daily clinical practice. MATERIALS AND METHODS: research was done exploring specialized databases PubMed, MEDLINE, EBSCO, Science Direct, and Scopus for the period 2010-2023, by use of MeSH terms: adverse drug reaction, drug-induced reactions, oral manifestation. RESULTS. The most common oral manifestations were categorized into groups as follows: saliva and salivary gland involvement, soft tissue alterations, hard tissue damage, and non-specific oral conditions. CONCLUSIONS: Knowledge of adverse drug-induced oral effects helps dental professionals to better diagnose oral disease, administer drugs, and improve patient compliance during drug therapy which may foster a more rational use of drugs. Keywords: oral cavity, adverse drug reactions, oral signs;
