To evaluate the association between stress and age, sex and academic level, the chi-square test was used, the odds ratio (OR) was calculated. Results: Academic stress was presented in 75,7% of the students and a statistically significant association was found with the academic level of the students (p <0,05), observing greater stress at the preclinical level than at the clinical one; and with the age of the students (p <0,05) observing greater stress in young adults than in adults. Conclusions: The majority of dentistry students of a Peruvian university present academic stress, which is associated with academic level and age.
