No effect : on your dental health whatsoever. The only effect masturbation have is a pleasure and actually many health benefits. Remember that saying: "If masturbation lead to hair loss, just about everyone on the planet would be bald". Shouldn't be any problem. However, moderation is the key.

Nope: Unless of course you are ignoring your oral hygiene because you are preoccupied with other activities. Then indirectly it does affect your dental health.
