Maintaining oral health is important for hospitalized patients. There is a bidirectional causality between some diseases of the oral cavity and systemic morbidities. Objective: To analyze the association between oral condition and hospitalization needs. Methods: Cross-sectional observational research with secondary data referring to the moment of the first dental appointment after hospital admission, from July 2017 to July 2019. To analyze the associations between the categorical variables, the Chi-square Partition test was applied, with 5% significance level. Results: 1683 patients were analyzed, and only 1.12% (N=19) did not need dental treatment. There was a higher frequency of oral alterations in patients hospitalized for cardiological, neurological and endocrine reasons. Conclusions: Some oral alterations are more common in hospitalized patients according to medical specialty; therefore, the oral condition can have a significant impact on the patient’s general health.
