This study examines the ethical situations of the dental profession of Korea and the current state of dental ethics education in dental colleges of U.S. to identify the necessity of professionalism and expert ethics. We propose the ‘Making Good Dental Clinic Checklist’ for improving ethical awareness and behavior, designed by the Good Dental Clinic Group of Dental Service International. This is based on our clinical experiences and our experience of translating Dental Ethics at Chairside into Korean.
