The study carried out was descriptive type of cross-section. The study population consisted of 450 students enrolled in dentistry career, a sample of 207 students was obtained, a validated test was used with Cronbach´s alpha reliability and structured by design. The results show that students have good knowledge at 4.35%, regular at 53.62%, while with 42.3% they have poor knowledge about cavity prevention with probiotics. We conclude that there is a lack of knowledge about cavity prevention with probiotics, however, there are no statistical differences in knowledge among students from the different semesters of dentistry career by disclosing that no semester has better knowledge than the others. Meanwhile the knowledge between preventing probiotic-free cavities and preventing cavities with probiotics it was shown otherwise that, if there is a marked difference from one knowledge of the other, there is better knowledge of probiotic-free cavity prevention than preventing cavities with probiotics.
