Resumen
A partir del año 2019 fue descubierta una nueva patología llamada covid 19, el mundo se vio afectado tanto en el ámbito social, económico, emocional y de la salud, siendo el área odontológica una de las más perjudicadas en los aspectos antes mencionados debido al mal uso de medidas de prevención para evitar la propagación del virus, es por ello que el presente trabajo tuvo como objetivo determinar los mecanismos de bioseguridad del covid 19 en la atención odontológica, se hizo uso de una metodología de tipo bibliográfico con un enfoque cualitativo, documental, descriptivo, analítico y sintético, en donde se obtuvo como resultados que varios autores recomiendan el uso adecuado del sistemas de bioseguridad, adicionando algunas normas de bioseguridad y prevención para evitar la propagación no solo del nuevo virus sino de algún agente patógeno o microbiano. Como conclusión: Es crucial el uso de todos los mecanismos que abarca el sistema BEDA, agregando las preguntas conocidas como triage antes de la consulta odontológica como medio para confirmar o descartar un caso de covid 19, el lavado correcto de manos y el uso de enjuague bucal antes de la exploración intrabucal con agentes antimicrobianos que ayuden a disminuir la carga viral contenida en el fluido oral (saliva), de igual manera la aplicación de una buena técnica de esterilización y desinfección según el instrumento que será sometido a dichos procesos, permitiendo así la eliminación de microrganismos que puedan contagiar al profesional, paciente y demás personas que comparten el área odontológica.
As of 2019, a new pathology called COVID 19 was discovered, the world was affected both in the social, economic, emotional and health fields, being the dental are one of the most affected in the aforementioned aspects due to the misuse of prevention measures to diminish the spread of the virus. The objective of this work was to determine the biosafety mechanisms of covid 19 in dental care, using a bibliographical methodology with a qualitative, documentary, descriptive, analytical and synthetic approach, where it was obtained as results that several authors recommend the proper use of biosafety systems, adding some biosafety and prevention standards to prevent the spread not only of the new virus but of some pathogenic or microbial agent. The conclusion is: the use of all mechanisms included in the BEDA system is very important, adding the questions known as triage before the dental consultation as a means to confirm or rule out a case of covid 19, correct hands washing and the use of mouthwash before the intraoral exploration with antimicrobial agents that help reduce the viral load contained in the oral fluid (spittle), in the same way the application of a goof sterilization and disinfection technique according the instrument that will be subjected to said processes, thus allowing the elimination of microorganisms that can infect the professional, patient and other people who share the dental area.
