Lighting is one of the important parameters to consider as either a preventive health measure during dental work, when adequate lighting is present, or as a potential risk factor when inadequate lighting exists in the patient care environment. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the lighting level of the work environment and the operating field used for dental care in dental offices and clinics in the Independencia district. The study was descriptive, observational, prospective, and cross-sectional. The sample consisted of 52 dental offices and 18 dental clinics. A lux meter was used as the instrument to measure the lighting level of the work environment and the operating field, and the readings were recorded in a data collection form. The results showed that 59.6% of the dental offices and 33.3% of the clinics had inadequate lighting levels in both the work environment and the operating field. Meanwhile, 40.4% of the dental offices and 66.7% of the clinics had adequate lighting levels. It was concluded that dental clinics had a higher level of adequate lighting than dental offices in both the work environment and the operating field.

The purpose of this research was to establish the relationship between the categorization of dental clinics and the quality of care in the city of Huacho, 2021. Materials and Methods: This is a basic study with a quantitative approach, prospective cross-sectional design, descriptive, and non-experimental design. A total of 119 patients treated in 5 dental clinics in Huacho in 2021 were evaluated. The survey technique was used with a questionnaire that included a series of questions designed on a Likert scale, focusing on the quality of care. The statistical analysis used the Chi-square test. Results: Regarding the quality of care received according to the Minsa categorization, patients who reported high quality care were 30.3% (36 patients) at categorized clinics and 19.3% (23 patients) at non-categorized clinics, showing a significant association between the variables. Conclusions: There is a very weak but statistically significant positive relationship between the categorization of dental clinics and the quality of care in the city of Huacho, 2021.
