Aims and Objectives
This special interest group has been formed to promote and explore a common educational framework for learning and teaching of ethics, law and professionalism in dental undergraduate courses across Europe.
The aim is to develop a core of agreed principles that can be applied in all regions, social and cultural contexts.
The Ethics and Law in Dentistry Special Interest Group was formed in Riga in 2014 with the goal of devising and sharing a consensus document on learning outcomes in the areas of Ethics, Law and Professionalism in Dental Education.
