This study aimed to verify the influence of the sense of coherence (SOC) on the oral health condition of adults and the elderly through a systematic review of the literature. The PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Latin American Caribbean Literature on Health Sciences - Literatura Latino-Americana do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde (LILACS), Brazilian Dentistry Bibliography - Bibliografia Brasileira de Odontologia (BBO), Cochrane and gray literature were consulted. Observational studies involving only adult and elderly patients who had their oral health condition assessed as an outcome were included. Studies that evaluated self-reported conditions, without possibility of dissociation of oral conditions, were also excluded, as well as pilot studies, literature reviews, case reports and case series. The quality of the research was assessed using the Downs and Black checklist criteria, assigning scores from 0 to 18 to them, with higher values indicating a lower risk of bias. Of a total of 642 studies identified, 12 remained after the eligibility criteria were adopted. The analysis of the quality of the studies, regarding the risk of bias, revealed that two were classified as low, six as uncertain, and four as high. In general, the domains with the worst evaluations were internal validity (confounding) and internal validity (bias). The main results found indicated a possible relationship between more significant values of SOC with better oral health conditions. Significant associations between SOC, tooth decay, periodontal conditions and number of teeth have been shown in some research. However, the divergence of methods and study outcomes made it impossible to meta-analyze and confirm these associations. Therefore, it is suggested to conduct new research that is better designed to allow verification of this proposal.
