Sumario:The aim of this study was to verify the offer of the Bioethics course in the curricular matrices of Brazilian dentistry schools. For this purpose, a review of all curricular matrices available on the Ministry of Education website was conducted from February to April 2019. The search was carried out individually in the matrix of each course, seeking information about the presence of the Bioethics course, the course load, the semester, and the regime (optional or mandatory) of the course offering in the curricular matrix. In the survey, 41 (17.67%) courses were found to offer the Bioethics course singly, and 36 (15.52%) offered it in the associated form, totaling 77 (33.19%) with an offer of the courses. It was concluded that, in 2019, the majority of courses did not provide the Bioethics subject, inferring the need for its inclusion in all courses as a way to comply with the existing national curricular guidelines and provide adequate humanistic education to future professionals.
