The American Dental Association’s Council on Dental Education and Licensure (CDEL) and Council on Ethics, Bylaws and Judicial Affairs (CEBJA) in collaboration with the American Dental Education Association (ADEA) and the American College of Dentists (ACD) sponsored a Symposium on Integrity and Ethics in Dental Education.

The theme of the Symposium was the beginning of a profession-wide focus on integrity and ethics in dental education and practice in light of a possible rise of unethical behavior among dental students and recent graduates.  The program brought together over 75 participants representing leaders, educators, students, and national experts in ethics.

An Executive Summary Report, which includes an overview of the Symposium as well as recommendations for actions, can be downloaded below. Or to request a copy of the entire proceedings, e-mail: education@ada.org or write to:
