    Author: Peltier B.
    Journal: J Calif Dent Assoc; 2001 Jul; 29(7):522-5. PubMed ID: 11490693.
    Abstract:
    Dentistry has historically been practiced autonomously, and many dentists place a high value on professional independence. This article outlines the conceptual basis for professional autonomy and asserts that dentists can retain independence only by aligning values with patients and remaining trustworthy in the eyes of the public.
