Objective: To determine the levels of empathetic orientation and its association with sociodemographic, family, and academic factors in students from the fifth to the tenth cycle of Dentistry at the Norbert Wiener Private University. Materials and methods: The approach was quantitative, with a hypothetical-deductive method, non-experimental, cross-sectional, and prospective. The study involved 283 students. The technique used was a survey, and questionnaires were applied and validated by expert judgment. Results: It was found that the global empathetic orientation variable was 84.5% of students, with a medium level. Regarding the academic factor, 72.2% of the students did not choose Dentistry as their first option, and 83% did not fail any subject more than once. On the other hand, significant differences were found regarding marital status and academic semester in relation to empathy. There was also a significant relationship between choosing Dentistry as the first option and empathy. Conclusion: There is a relationship between some sociodemographic and academic factors, but no significant relationship with the family aspect.
