The New York State Office of
the Professions has mandated that, during the registration period beginning
January 1, 2008, dentists who are required to complete continuing education
must, on a one-time basis, complete a three-hour course in New York State
jurisprudence and ethics.
This course focuses primarily on case presentations of ethical dilemmas
involving common grounds for ethical complaints and disciplinary actions.
Knowledge of the rules and regulations governing the practice of dentistry is
imputed to all licensed practitioners and ignorance of the law or ethics is
never a defense.
· Identify and analyze the ethical dilemmas which commonly occur in the operation of a dental practice
· Determine alternative conduct applying the ADA Principles of Ethics and Code of Professional Conduct and NYSDA Code of Ethics
· Know and comply with applicable laws, rules and regulations
· Maintain an interactive values-based discussion with other professionals and the community
Recommended for .... Dentists.
