To evaluate the level of knowledge a survey was made -- before and after the intervention --, which included 6 questions related to the topics that would be treated. With the use of affective techniques and didactic games the motivation and active participation for the acquisition of the knowledge were guaranteed. The main results showed that 95,2% of the athletes acquired an appropriate common knowledge about dental traumatisms
