description Disorders associated with the stomatognathic system are common in adolescents and are often caused by buccal dysfunctions associated with bacteria, acidic foods, poor hygiene, drunkorexia, bigorexia, smoking, piercings, and eating disorders. The aim of this study was to inform students of the University of São Paulo, School of Dentistry of Ribeirão Preto, about these frequent problems in adolescents, considering their biopsychosocial aspects, and encourage interaction between college and high school students. To this end, a lecture on the topic was delivered to 152 public school students in the city of Ribeirão Preto. The students were unaware of the stomatognathic system and its importance in their daily lives. They were curious about the subject and surprised by the accessible language, and even shared experienced situations, making the event more interactive. The university students developed skills and abilities during the preparation of the lecture and during the interaction with the adolescents, such that in addition to the transfer of information, there was also socialization and knowledge exchange. This study showed that buccal problems related to the stomatognathic system can seriously affect the health of adolescents. The findings support the important role of universities in promoting extension activities that benefit both their students and the wider community.<br />
