Abstract: The Improvement of Oral Health Project of the University of São Paulo (USP) was initiated in 2002, first by the analysis and planning of the activities, then by including, in 2003, dental care given by the Dentistry undergraduate and graduate students, under teaching supervision, from the Bauru Dental School in co-operation with de Advanced Research Unit of USP in Rondonia. This work aimed to carry through a descriptive analysis of the performance in all trips taken by the ones involved in this project since July 2003, where educative, preventive and curative activities were performed. The numbers demonstrate a necessity of a greater reach of health services to economical and socially unfavourable population, as well as the importance of university extension projects in these places.
