The objective of this research was to determine the cariogenic potential of the diet consumed by students of the Dental School of the University Wiener. The sample consisted of all first-cycle students who met the inclusion criteria, totaling 97 students, who were interviewed using a validated instrument. The results were processed using the SPSS version 19 statistical program, employing descriptive statistics and Chi-square statistical tests. The results showed that 41.3% of the population consumed a diet with low cariogenic potential, 58.7% consumed a diet with moderate cariogenic potential, and no cases of students consuming a diet with high cariogenic potential were found. No statistically significant relationship was found between variables such as age, gender, or occupation. Other factors related to the university life environment were considered in this result, and it is recommended that future research delve into these factors. The study concluded that the majority of students consume a diet with moderate cariogenic potential.
