Abstract (English):	The quality and safety of the patient are essential characteristics in all healthcare professions. In Mexico, these attributes are reflected in a regulatory framework that governs healthcare. Therefore, knowledge of this framework by dentists and specialists is essential for their professional and ethical practice. The Mexican legal system is classified according to its hierarchy and its material, spatial, and validity scopes. This legislation begins with the Political Constitution of the United Mexican States, which establishes the right to health protection for the population. Next, the General Health Law (GHL) sets out the general guidelines for the profession. Following that are the regulations that impact the regulation of dentistry. Finally, there are the Official Mexican Standards (OMS) clinical practice guidelines (CPG), lex artis, jurisprudence, and individualized standards. However, this regulatory framework comprises a variety of norms and regulations that are interconnected. Therefore, this article provides an overview of how this regulatory framework addresses the quality and safety of dental patient care in Mexico. This regulatory framework is mandatory, but monitoring to ensure compliance in offices and clinics presents challenges, given that dentistry is a service mainly provided in the private sector. Developing and implementing effective monitoring and supervision mechanisms specifically designed for dental services in the private sector is essential. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Spanish):	La calidad es un atributo de los servicios de salud otorgados por todas las profesiones de la salud, y la seguridad del paciente constituye uno de sus objetivos, que es primordial. En México, la calidad se encuentra en un marco normativo que regula la atención sanitaria, cuyo conocimiento es esencial para los odontólogos y especialistas en el ejercicio ético de su profesión. El sistema jurídico mexicano se constituye en primera instancia por la Constitución Política de los Estados Unidos Mexicanos, que establece el derecho a la protección a la salud. Después, la Ley General de Salud (LGS) establece directrices generales para la profesión. Luego se encuentran las Normas Oficiales Mexicanas (NOM) y la jurisprudencia que se aplica en casos relacionados con la práctica odontológica. Además, existen documentos que acercan la evidencia científica, como las guías de práctica clínica (GPC) la lex artis y las normas técnicas individualizadas. Sin embargo, este marco regulatorio es complejo y se integra de una variedad de normas y regulaciones que están interrelacionadas. Por lo tanto, este artículo proporciona una descripción general de la forma en que el marco normativo aborda la calidad y seguridad del paciente en lo que respecta a la odontología en México. Aunque estas regulaciones son obligatorias, vigilar su cumplimiento en consultorios y clínicas presenta desafíos, en especial porque la odontología se proporciona principalmente en el sector privado. Es indispensable desarrollar e implementar mecanismos efectivos de monitoreo y supervisión específicos para contribuir a la mejora de la cali dad y seguridad en los servicios odontológicos en el sector pri vado.
