Child maltreatment is seen as one of the major public health problems according to the World Health Organization and the dentist can directly influence the diagnosis and make a denunciation of these cases, if having the knowledge and training needed. The present study aimed to assess whether the curriculum framework of the Rio de Janeiro's Dentistry courses provides enough knowledge and preparation to the academics about child maltreatment. For that, a field survey was conducted with data collection through the application of a semi-structured questionnaire in eight dental courses in Rio de Janeiro, totalizing a sample of 200 students in the last year of graduation. Of these, 53 (26.5%) belong to public institutions and 147 (73.5%) to private institutions. Among the participants, 74.5% said that the theme was addressed in the course, mainly in the disciplines of Legal Dentistry and Pediatric Dentistry. All of them affirmed the importance of the topic at graduation and only 29 (14.5%) did not believe it was among the dentist responsibility to diagnose these cases. Regarding the knowledge of the Child and Adolescent Statute (CAS), 129 (64.5%) students stated to know, while 107 (53.5%) ignore the legal implications for dentists. Bruises, fear and retraction of the child were the most cited signs and symptoms. As for the conduct, the majority said they would report to the Guardianship Council. It was concluded that the dental students in the sample have a regular knowledge about this subject.
