The second-order Stark effect for a planar Dirac one-electron atom in the ground state is analyzed within the framework of the Rayleigh-Schrödinger perturbation theory, with the use of the Sturmian series expansion of the generalized Dirac-Coulomb Green's function. A closed-form analytical expression for the static dipole polarizability of that system is found. The formula involves the generalized hypergeometric function ${}_{3}F_{2}$ with the unit argument. Numerical values of the polarizabilities for relativistic planar hydrogenic atoms with atomic numbers $1\leq Z\leq 68$ are provided in a tabular form. A simple formula for the polarizability of a nonrelativistic two-dimensional hydrogenic atom, reported previously by several other authors, is recovered from our result in the nonrelativistic limit.
