    The objective of this research was to determine the level of compliance with COVID-19 biosecurity regulations among dentists in dental clinics in Lima in 2020. This study was observational, cross-sectional, prospective, and descriptive. An instrument issued by the Peruvian Dental Association, which was modified and validated, was used, achieving a Cronbach's Alpha reliability of 0.744, indicating high reliability. The sample consisted of 378 dentists who answered 26 online questions. The results by dimensions were as follows: telephone triage (85.94%), pre-appointment instructions (92.31%), pre-entry measures (73.21%), dentist protection (93.9%), and patient protection (82.23%). In the clinical area and solid waste management, the compliance levels were regular, with 78.78% and 57.03%, respectively. Overall, dentists had a compliance level of over 75% with COVID-19 biosecurity regulations. The hypothesis test conducted showed an approximate significance of 0%, rejecting the null hypothesis and concluding that more than 75% of dentists comply with COVID-19 biosecurity regulations.

Results: Of the 20 scientific articles analyzed, 100% addressed the degree of knowledge and practices related to biosafety measures, 90% (18) focused on knowledge and practice of handwashing, 85% (17) discussed knowledge and practice regarding the use of protective barriers, and 80% (16) identified knowledge and practice related to the proper disposal of contaminated materials by healthcare personnel. Conclusions: The reviewed research showed that healthcare personnel have a high degree of conceptual knowledge, but their practical application of biosafety measures is at a low level.
