The objective of this paper is to perform a narrative review about the management and oral manifestations of patients who present eating disorders, focusing on anorexia and bulimia nervosa. Both disorders are often manifested orally for the first time: teeth decay, erosion of the lingual and occlusal surfaces of the teeth, atrophic and traumatized oral mucosa, parotid and submandibular enlargement, etc. It is important to detect these types of patients and remark the patient and/or their parents of the possible complications that may occur, and consequently refer the patient for a correct diagnosis and treatment. The professional must instruct the patient in oral hygiene techniques and introduce him into an individualized prevention program.
