[The emancipated patient. A conflict between right of autonomy and encouragement to use one's right of autonomy properly].

During the last decades, patients have acquired a wide range of legal rights. Judicial courts are administering these rights to actual situations leading to new obligations for health carers. In this article, the patient's right of autonomy and the dentist's care delivering obligations are examined. Sometimes these rights and obligations are clashing, requiring a decision which comes first. Disciplinary councils are expected to determine in actual situations primarily the dentist's obligations or the patient's rights mentioned in the complaint. Subsequently, they are asked to assess possible interferences with other obligations and patient's rights. Finally, they have to indicate how rights and obligations have to be weighed up.

Teaching law, ethics, and risk management at the School of Dental Medicine State University of New York at Stony Brook.

An upgraded course (program) in Law, Ethics, and Risk Management has been taught at the School of Dental Medicine, State University of New York at Stony Brook, since 1977 and was revised effective 1988. It brings together didactic instruction and an extensive clinical component beginning immediately before students enter the school's dental clinic and ending when clinical instruction is completed before graduation. The program is designed to (1) prepare students for the management of patients in the clinic; (2) ensure that student management of patients in the clinic does not place the supervising faculty and university administration at legal risk; (3) provide the student with knowledge about the law and legal system; (4) provide students with information about the regulation of dental practice; (5) identify areas of legal vulnerability in the practice of the profession, and risk management office principles designed to control or eliminate the risks; and (6) instruct the student about professional codes regulating ethical behavior and ethical standards of conduct.
