Introduction. The following research aimed to identify the causes that affect the transition process of students from a simulated environment towards one with actual patients in the career of Dentistry at the Universidad Diego Portales. For this purpose, information was gathered from developed contents, on time delivery of these theoretical and practical contents and guidelines for teachers of the subjects of Dental Biomaterials Preclinical (PCBMD) and Clinical Course of the Adult (CA). Subjects and methods. To collect information, an instrument was created and validated based on a survey which was applied on 18 teachers and 120 students. Results. Teachers from PCBMD declares in 63.6 % to know the contents of the CA program, however 50% of teachers from CA acknowledges the contents of the program PCBMD. PCBMD students declare 95% timely delivery of the theoretical content, only 25% of CA students declare that the theoretical contents are delivered in a timely manner. Students state that there are some conceptual differences and practices (treatment of caries lesions 18.5% and 33.8% respectively). CA teachers identify conceptual and practical difference criteria (mainly in prosthesis fixed unit, with 33.3% and 58.3% respectively). Conclusions. The organization department, reflects a very rigid structure. Students suggest that clinical visits are conducted as support activities for learning, fostering integration of content. It was verified that there was a lack of lineament and lack of programs for teachers of both subjects.
