This study communicates the final results of an investigation in the field of History of Education, specifically within the theme of the History of School Institutions, the object of which was the Dentistry School of the Minas Triangle region (Faculdade de Odontologia do Triângulo Mineiro), Brazil, highlighting the reasons for its establishment and its initial operation, encompassing the period from 1947, the year it was authorized, to the year of its recognition, 1950. The investigation was developed under the solid support of the main theoretical-methodological references of historiographical research in regard to school institutions, notably, Magalhães (1998, 1999, 2004) and Nosella and Buffa (2009), which contributed the main categories of analysis used in the present investigation. Consequently, this framework collaborated in refining the historical-educational analysis regarding the first initiatives related to higher education in the city of Uberaba, Minas Gerais, Brazil, and, specifically, in regard to the Dentistry School of the Minas Triangle region.
