Sumario:Dental students base their theoretical learning of histology and embryology concepts on books, both printed and electronic versions. It is likely that they also resort to other sources of information that are not always reliable. The purpose of this study was to explore the use of scientific histology and embryology textbooks and other sources of information by first-year dental students to complete a series of specific topic guides.A Linkert style structured questionnaire was utilized to gather information on respondents' preferences for using printed or digital textbooks as well as other online resources. The sample consisted of 63 first-year dental students, to whom the objective of the study was explained and who were invited to participate anonymously and voluntarily.The results showed a 57% preference for printed text books over 32% who resorted to the digital version. The conclusion is that students will continue to use the printed text book and will increasingly resort to the electronic format as long as they have access to the technology necessary for its use.
