  • Title: Under oath: examining the role of the Hippocratic Oath in dentistry.
    Author: Curtis EK.
    Journal: J Am Coll Dent; 1998; 65(2):33-5. PubMed ID: 9697372.
    Abstract:
    The context in which Hippocrates practiced is presented as an explanation for the content of the oath. Today oath-taking invokes respect for high principles shared among a community of practitioners even though the specifics of Hippocrates' code may be outdated or even unknown to many health professionals. More recent oaths particular to dentistry are also presented.
