The promotion of academic training actions for the prevention and promotion of oral health for patients with Down Syndrome seeks to provide an improvement in the quality of life of patients and their families, in addition to multiplying the qualification of future professionals capable of comprehensive care to the person with special needs. The purpose of this article is to report the experience, for a period of two years, of the extension project Sorrisos Especiais, from the State University of Piauí, which works at APAE in Parnaíba, Piauí. The strategy used in the project was the orientation of patients assisted in this reference institution through playful activities and supervised brushing practices in order to prevent oral health problems. Therefore, it is concluded that the university-community interaction provides conditions for the global well-being of the individual and promotes the formation of new skills and competences for academics when accompanying patients with Down Syndrome.
