Abstract

An educational intervention was carried out in the 23 athletes of free fight in the juvenile category, belonging to "Eduardo Izquierdo Quiñones" Sport Institution of San Luis municipality, in Santiago de Cuba, from November, 2015 to April, 2016, through the use of the Instructive "Combatant of smiles", in order to provide them knowledge about the dental traumatisms.  To evaluate the level of knowledge a survey was made--before and after the intervention--, which included 6 questions related to the topics that would be treated.  With the use of affective techniques and didactic games the motivation and active participation for the acquisition of the knowledge were guaranteed.  The main results showed that 95,2% of the athletes acquired an appropriate common knowledge about dental traumatisms.
