Resumen
Introducción: El consentimiento informado es uno de los aspectos primordiales, ya que expresa
la voluntad y autonomía que tiene el paciente para decidir sobre el tratamiento que se le va a
realizar. El tratamiento a realizarse depende de la decisión conjunta del paciente y profesional,
presentándoselo a la persona a tratar de manera clara. La conclusión destaca la importancia de
hacer del consentimiento informado el medio por el cual se recupera la dignidad de la persona
mediante una relación ética y dialógica donde se reconoce la decisión del paciente. Objetivo:
Determinar la importancia de utilizar el consentimiento informado en la práctica Odontológica.
Metodología: El trabajo es una revisión bibliográfica – documental, descriptivo, analítico, y de
método deductivo donde se usaron 80 artículos científicos que fueron publicados desde el 2016
hasta el 2022 y que fueron sacados de la web usando buscadores como Google Académico,
Redalyc, Scielo, y en los metabuscadores Web of Science, PuMed, Cochrane, de los cuales se
usaron 50 y el resto fueron excluidos. Resultado: Mayor conocimiento sobre la importancia que
tiene aplicar el consentimiento informado en la práctica Odontológica. Recomendación:
Informar adecuadamente al paciente sobre el consentimiento informado ya que es de
suma importancia para todos los profesionales de la salud, no solo por los procesos
legales que se puedan dar en caso de un fallo en el tratamiento, sino por el compromiso
que tenemos con la persona para mejor su calidad de vida
