Sumario:Objective: Know the preceptory in dentistry from the point of view of dentist professionals / surgeons as to their function and pedagogical practice. Methods: It is a research with qualitative approach in the case study modality with the adoption of the techniques of semi-structured interview and participant observation with the 12 dentist surgeons who acted as trainee preceptors in the public service. The data were interpreted according to Bardin content analysis technique. Results: The preceptors reported that they recognize the practice scenarios as places of contextualization of the theoretical contents learned in the training institution; perceive themselves as collaborators in the professional training of the student and also feel as learners of the process. They identified as difficulties in this context as their lack of pedagogical training to exercise the preceptory and the distance between the academy and the service. The dentist surgeon / preceptor has difficulty perceiving the teaching role in his preceptor function. There is a lack of stimulus (training and financiall incentive) to act as a preceptor. Conclusion: Is evident the need to strengthen bonds with the educational institution through effective partnerships and communications, planning and orientation regarding the progress of internship periods in general.
