Abstract

For many years, teaching dentistry has been based solely on the reproduction of restorative techniques, students being motivated merely to perform procedures without developing reflective skills, which are as important as the techniques themselves. This experience report discusses a clinical case and problematizes the teaching of minimally invasive dentistry. Discussions were held and the formulation of tables and charts was performed by the students, as well as the compilation of a practical guide to help with the choice of restorative treatment. The activities were considered productive and complementary in solving lingering doubts. It was concluded that the use of the active methodology reported in knowledge building was an important strategy for the creation of learning situations in the approach to minimally invasive dentistry. Meaningful learning from an ongoing clinical case proved to be an important teaching strategy.
