Statute overview

About this statute

Odontologists must hold a university Licenciado degree to practice, and they may perform certain preventive, diagnostic, treatment, and prescription activities within their professional scope. The provision recognizes the dental prosthetist profession, defines its work on dental prostheses, and requires dental prosthetics laboratories to be run by qualified prosthetists. La norma crea la profesión de higienista dental y permite realizar ciertas funciones de apoyo técnico-asistencial. This law creates and organizes the dental professions of dentist, dental technician, and dental hygienist, and sets out their main training and practice rules. This provision says the law does not limit certain stomatology specialists’ dentist-like professional capacity if they have a recognized acquired right, and it allows oral and maxillofacial surgery specialists to do work in their specialty in the oral cavity so long as they do not practice dentistry.
