There is never a situation when the ethical dimension does not exist. Being willing and able to recognize ethical issues is the first step in the process of managing them. Video case scenarios will be used to present and stimulate discussion about common and sometimes subtle ethical issues in the care of dental patients. As well, a model for decision-making considering the ethical dimension of care will be presented and used during discussion.

Objectives:
Recognize and describe the ethical dimension present in the clinical care of patients.
Distinguish the similarities and differences between clinical ethical and professional ethical issues.
Develop a decision-making framework to address ethical concerns.
Understand the four-box model for identifying ethical issues in the clinical care of patients.
