Objective: To determine the relationship between oral health, quality of life and dental caries in school children in the district of Huamachuco. Materials and methods: The study was cross-sectional and observational, 137 primary school children were evaluated from the rural area (51 children) and urban area (86 children) of the district of Huamachuco. The CEOD index was used to measure dental caries, through clinical observation of the schoolchildren, while for quality of life the ECOHIS survey was used, applied to the parents of the schoolchildren. The relationship between the variables of interest was evaluated by means of Spearman's Rho correlation, with statistical significance if the p-value was less than 0.05. Results: It was found that the average score in school children with a very low level of dental caries was 2.139 ± 5.04, in a low level 21.64 ± 5.25 and with a moderate level it was 23.16 ± 5.67 points. When relating the quality of life in oral health and the level of dental caries, using Spearman's R, a low positive direct relationship was found (r=0.234), which was statistically significant (p=0.000). Conclusions: There is a low positive direct relationship between dental caries and quality of life related to oral health in school children in the district of Huamachuco
