The National Oral Health Policy Guidelines emphasize home visits (HV) as one of the main ways to increase access to services and engender bonds with population, considering the HV as a challenge for the Oral Health Team. The appropriateness of the Dentistry Courses (2002) to the National Curriculum Guidelines (DCN) involves preparing the former student for this approach, using the HV as a pedagogical strategy. This study investigated the contributions of the HV in dental education, through an integrative review of the national scientific production, between 2004 and 2017, composing a qualitative synthesis of the literature. Four databases were searched through these keywords (“home care" OR "home visits") AND ("dentistry" OR "oral health"). Nine articles composed the analysis of this review. From the results emerged four categories: 1 - Dental Education on Unified Health System (SUS); 2 - Enlargement of the health-disease process understanding; 3 - Interdisciplinary work; 4 - Care Humanization. As contributions to dental education, it was evidenced that the HV allowed the Dentistry student to experience the territory and interact with SUS users and professionals of the health team. The student's contact with the HV makes it possible to learn the health care of the user in their life context, as well as the experience of the interdisciplinary work, valuing the different professional knowledge. The household was shown as a unique space for learning of bond relationship, reception and humanization, which favors dental education from the perspective of the expanded clinic.
