: Ethics is a science of ideal human character and behavior in situations where the distinction should be made between what is right and wrong. Dental jurisprudence is a set of legal regulations set forth by each state's legislature describing the legal limitations and regulations related to the practice of dentistry. The Department of Public Health Dentistry every year conducts a value added program on Dental Ethics and Jurisprudence for the first year post-graduates of all the departments in the institution. This program aims to increase the awareness of dental ethics, jurisprudence and COPRA of the post graduates.
The Department also regularly conducts CDE programs on the topic of Dental Ethics and Jurisprudence for under graduate, post-graduate and faculty members to keep everyone updated with any new additions or amendments.
