Abstract
Objetivo: El presente estudio tuvo como objetivo evaluar la percepción de los cirujanos
dentistas sobre la digitalización en odontología, específicamente el uso de sistemas
CAD/CAM, en la región de La Libertad, Perú. Materiales y métodos: La presente
investigación fue observacional, descriptiva, prospectiva y transversal. Se realizó una
encuesta a 250 cirujanos dentistas de la región y se examinaron los hallazgos a través de
Google forms. Resultados: Se encontró que la mayoría de los profesionales (50.3%)
tenían un bajo nivel de práctica sobre los sistemas CAD/CAM, el 43.8 % presentó una
actitud neutral frente a los beneficios de los sistemas digitales y el 92.5% de los
encuestados refirió que la formación muy importante al momento de iniciar con la
digitalización en odontología. Los principales factores que limitaban su adopción fueron
el alto costo de la inversión inicial, la curva de aprendizaje y la falta de confianza en el
uso de tecnología computarizada. Sin embargo, los cirujanos dentistas que utilizaban
CAD/CAM reportaron beneficios como la reducción de tiempo y costos, así como una
mejor experiencia para el paciente. Conclusiones: La digitalización en odontología aún
enfrenta barreras de adopción en Perú, lo que resalta la necesidad de programas de
capacitación y estrategias para promover su uso entre los profesionales.

Materials and methods: This research was observational, descriptive, prospective and cross-sectional. A survey was conducted among 250 dental surgeons in the region and the findings were examined through Google forms. Results: It was found that the majority of professionals (50.3%) had a low level of practice on CAD/CAM systems, 43.8% presented a neutral attitude towards the benefits of digital systems and 92.5% of those surveyed referred Training is very important when starting digitalization in dentistry. The main factors limiting its adoption were the high cost of the initial investment, the learning curve and the lack of confidence in the use of computerized technology. However, dental surgeons using CAD/CAM reported benefits such as reduced time and costs, as well as a better patient experience. Conclusions: Digitalization in dentistry still faces adoption barriers in Peru, which highlights the need for training programs and strategies to promote its use among professionals.
