⭐ Ethics is an important topic in dentistry, especially on standardized exams.
💡 Ethics is different from other dental topics and requires a different type of thinking.
🔎 The introductory video provides background information on ethics and the ADA Code of Ethics.
🔑 The dental profession is trusted by society to work in patients' mouths and follow high ethical standards.
👥 Society grants certain privileges to dentists, such as working in someone's mouth, in exchange for their commitment to ethical conduct.
📜 The ADA code is a written expression of the ethical standards that dentists must adhere to in order to earn and maintain trust from society.
The ADA Code is a set of ethical standards that dental professionals should follow.
The code undergoes continuous review and is not a complete articulation of all ethical obligations.
The ADA Code has three main components, including the principles of ethics.
📚 There are five fundamental principles that form the foundation of the ADA code: patient autonomy, non-maleficence, beneficence, justice, and veracity.
⚖️ Sometimes these principles can overlap or compete with each other for priority, requiring a careful balance in ethical dilemmas.
⌨️ The ADA's Code of Professional Conduct (CPC) outlines specific types of conduct that are either required or prohibited, and it is legally binding on ADA members.
The ADA Code consists of principles, rules, and advisory opinions.
Advisory opinions provide interpretations of the code for disciplinary proceedings.
Ethics and law are related but distinct, with ethics guiding morally right actions and law enforcing behaviors.
⚖️ Ethics generally function at a higher level than laws, as laws simply enforce what ethics already tell us.
🔑 Ethics are more important than laws and do not change like laws do.
👨⚕️ The ADA emphasizes dentists' knowledge, technical skill, and good character qualities of honesty, integrity, and respect.
📚 The video introduces the ADA Code of Ethics in Dentistry.
💼 The ADA Code sets guidelines for ethical conduct in the dental profession.
🔑 The code covers areas such as patient care, professional relationships, and confidentiality.
