Ethics and Dental Materials Jurisprudence HE ' RY W. GILLETT D.M.D. Professor of Dentistry Ethics, tlie science of human duty, and juris- pradence, tlie application of the essential dental laws, are closely related. Knowledge of both is essential for tlie dentist. The upright man, sound ill his concepts of professional responsibility, will understand that both dictate unswerving ad- herence to the rule that the patients highest inter- ests must always have preference. This course serA ' es best to establish tlie mutual confidence essential for successful service. Malpractice is a word dreaded by every pro- fessional man, and student s are always eager to explore the avenues of malpractice law. Such knowledge is essential. For example, when any dental ivork is begun vitliout written or verbal statements by either party, an implied contract is automatically established which is enforceable in court. The objective of the Jurisprudence course is to emphasize the fund- amentals of the impor- tant dental laws and to consider their applica- tions. HEXRV W. GILLETT WILLIA-M B. DUNNING D.D.S. Professor of Dentistry HERBERT D. AYERS, Jr. A.B.. D.D.S. Instructor in Dentistry From the time when each dentist had his o vn special materials and formulas, scientific methods have become more important in tlie evaluation process by which tlie dental profession selects its materials, until that process has become an independent science. The study of that science aims to equip the profession with the ability to select the most suitable materials, and to re- appraise the available materials whenever there is restriction in supply or new products are de- veloped.
