The Objective and Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) is an exam organized in stations that simulate clinical reality and students are evaluated in specific tasks such as anamnesis, physical examination, communication with patients, noninvasive clinical procedures, among others. Students rotated through stations, and one or two examiners score their performance in each task, with predetermined criteria and time. The objective of this study was to report on the experience of applying the OSCE in undergraduate and how to structure it. The first OSCE applied for Dental undergraduate students at Universidade do Oeste Paulista (UNOESTE) was in 2016, with the objective of evaluating the competencies of the students who would enter the clinics in the following semester. The evaluation was applied to 70 students at the end of the third year and the contents selected were Restorative Dentistry, Periodontics, Endodontics, Radiology, Biosafety, Anesthesiology and Oral Diagnosis. The OSCE can be considered an adequate evaluation technique for the attainment of clinical competences in the training of dental surgeons, as it provides the undergraduate student with the experience of activities similar to the reality he will face in clinical care and his future professional performance. This assessment method gives students the opportunity to be evaluated more objectively and to learn from feedback on their exam performance.
