Abstract
The aim of this research was to investigate the knowledge, judgment, monitoring and execution of the dentists regarding Hospital Dental Care. Five
hundred dentists from Araçatuba (São Paulo state) answered a questionnaire. The results showed that 49% of professionals have never had experience at
hospitals and 64% affirmed that this content is poorly approached in graduation. Also 46% of respondents have no interest or don’t think necessary acting in a hospital and 24% believe that this care is done by specialists only. It can be suggested that there is a lack of knowledge about Hospital Dental Care, thus the dentist shall be instructed since academic training for insertion into the hospital team.
