Objective: The aim of this study was to identify the profile of patients treated at the Implantology Clinic of the Integrated Schools of Adamantina-FAI, Adamantina-SP, Brazil, through analysis of medical records, appliance of questionnaire and execution of clinical examination. Methodology: The sample universe of this study consisted of 96 medical records and 96 patients seen over the nine years of FAI's experience in the discipline of implantology. The results were analyzed in the IBM SPSS StatisticsVersion 19 program and the Fisher's exact and chi-square tests were also applied. Discussion/Results: It was observed that 53.97 % of the participants have lost their natural teeth due to caries. The type of implant prosthesis most used was the fixed denture (88 %). It is also important to note that almost all patients had no loss of implant.These patients were mostly aged less than or equal to 49 years for women (73.8%) and greater than or equal to 50 years for men (61.8%). In relation to the quantity of implant elements, the use of two implants or less was the most common rehabilitation for both genders. Another important observation is that only 15.8 % of the participants has the habit of smoking. Conclusion: Thus, the profile of the treated patient at the Implantology Clinic of FAI, is mostly women, healthy, aged less than 49 years old, non-smoking, which rehabilitated one or two teeth, with almost no incidence of implant lost and who opted for fixed denture supported by the implants.
