@Aaron_T_B we must verify that the patient has full understanding of r/b but we can only note that we provided them with necessary info

[Daniel Almon @daniel_almon]

@PeterTweeter_A should the dentist always be responsible for writing the notes or could assistant do this and dentist give final check?

[Daniel Almon @daniel_almon]

@ParkerHaycock I agree criticizing others is not necessary. Would you contact the professional if you routinely saw results of poor work?

[Daniel Almon @daniel_almon]

@rjkhoury I agree that communication is very important. How do you handle patients who get scared from too much transparency?

[Daniel Almon @daniel_almon]

@tpelli01 I believe that 100% effort should always be given, but can 100% outcome always be achieved or do you think it is case by case?

[Daniel Almon @daniel_almon]

Fully informed consents requires discussing ALL associated risks/benefits so patient can make best decision for treatment #dentpractprobs

[Daniel Almon @daniel_almon]

@ParkerHaycock the current solutions include raising taxes by about 2% or lowering benefits but more options are needed #dontraisemytaxes

[Daniel Almon @daniel_almon]

@brendenlsmith I definitely agree. It's very hard to make the best health care decisions for yourself when only few options are affordable

@kadehabash providing food on the table is the #1 goal, but I would love to see an increase in ownership as economic policies improve

@Giovanni2482 more affordable education could be key to closing the gap between the wealth of middle class and rich. Stress must go down

[Daniel Almon @daniel_almon]

@r2thekesh I agree these are both key factors. I just wish it was easier for lower income families to afford a healthier diet

The signing of the Social Security Act in 1935 served as a cornerstone for future developments and to lower poverty among the elderly#Ethics

@keegan_chandler at least they could hopefully provide the oral health knowledge the patient needs w/o being unethical #ULSDethics #dental

@ParkerHaycock I agree, I wish there were more options for loan repayment in rural areas. Necessary sacrifice #ULSDethics #dental

[Daniel Almon @daniel_almon]

@amkyro220 yea some financial sacrifices are needed in order to better serve our dental community and increase access #ULSDethics #dental

[Daniel Almon @daniel_almon]

@rheinz_57 I agree, more clarity and understanding is needed especially in rural and underserved areas #ULSDethics #dental

[Daniel Almon @daniel_almon]

One possible solution for access is adding an oral health education class or elective to public school systems #ULSDethics #dental #4
