David T. Ozar, an Emeritus Professor of Philosophy at Loyola University Chicago, has made significant contribution to dental ethics through his teaching, founding of the American Society for Dental Ethics, and extensive work with dental schools and professional societies, while also authoring 153 ethics articles and three editions of “Dental Ethics at Chairside.”
His distinguished career has earned him numerous honors, including Honorary Fellowships from the American College of Dentists and the American College of Legal Medicine, as well as the American College of Dentists’ Ethics and Professionalism Award in 2018.
Learning Objectives:
- Describe the main elements of the development of dental ethics as a discipline for teaching and learning since the 1980’s.
