This article integrates the list of studies on teaching Sociology in higher education. It has the objective of how to understand the significance and importance that undergraduate students in Dentistry at the State University of Maringá (UEM) attribute to the discipline of Sociology in their professional training and to relate them to legal discourses and formal courses, along with the competencies of the sociology for Higher Education. The research is qualitative. The results show that the importance the students gave to sociology is in line with the skills of the discipline and the legal and formal questions of the undergraduate degree course in dentistry. However, it is not a reproduction of discourses, but subjects that speak of their concrete experience with the discipline, so that the sociological content starts to produce meaning for their lives and in the exercise of their profession.

Palabras clave : Higher education; Sociology teaching; Dentistry degree course.
