    The objective of the study was to determine the pH and salivary flow in healthcare personnel from an emergency hospital service after the consumption of carbonated and dairy beverages in Callao, 2020. The sample consisted of 43 healthcare professionals from the emergency hospital service, whose basal pH and post-ingestion pH at 5, 15, and 30 minutes were recorded, as well as salivary flow before and after beverage consumption. The research type was quasi-experimental, prospective, longitudinal, and descriptive. Data were recorded on a form and later analyzed statistically using SPSS software 21.0, including paired T-test, one-way ANOVA, and repeated measures ANOVA with a significance level of p<0.001. Results showed that the average pH in healthcare personnel before consuming carbonated and dairy drinks was 6.83 ±0.38. The average basal volume and volume/minute were 3.88±1.48 and 0.77±0.29 respectively, showing a tendency to be symmetric, with values detailed according to the type of drink. Comparing the change in volume and vol/min between drink type and basal value, all cases showed an increase, which was significant (p<0.001). Additionally, final volume and vol/min values among the four drinks did not show a significant difference (p=0.47 and p=0.29, respectively). pH values at 5, 15, and 30 minutes also showed differences between groups (p<0.001), with a tendency towards an increase in pH value. It is concluded that salivary pH decreased and salivary flow volume increased in healthcare personnel from an emergency hospital service after consuming carbonated and dairy beverages; however, only dairy beverages returned to their initial pH, while carbonated drinks, particularly Coca Cola, did not recover their pH within the determined time.
