BIOETHICAL MODELS OF DOCTOR–PATIENT RELATIONSHIPS (ON THE EXAMPLE OF A DENTIST)

Abstract

This article describes the concept of a bioethical model of the doctor-patient relationship using the example of a dentist. The development of new medical technologies leads to the fact that today the relationship between a doctor and a patient is undergoing significant changes. If earlier the patient simply entrusted the doctor with the solution of questions about his treatment and even life, now he increasingly demands information about what is offered to him in this regard. The patient even "follows" the doctor, bearing in mind the possibility of legal action for "improper treatment".
