This paper aims to discuss some psychoanalytic contributions to Pediatric Dentistry in the field of communication. The Pediatric Dentistry is a branch of Dentistry that faces many psychological challenges. The dental care of children includes the dentist, his team, the patient and his companion at different places, which draws several dynamics. Play is present in the pediatric dentist’s office. The paranoid fantasies are very common. It’s a different approach when the pediatric dentist is looking for expanding the communication with his patient and developing his listening in dental practices. In some situations it is important to recommend that the psychoanalyst see the patient. Whatever the case the Psychoanalysis has many interfaces to build with Pediatric Dentistry.

Palabras clave : Psychoanalysis; Pediatric Dentistry; Communication; Unconsciousness.
