Advertising, commercialism, and professionalism: a history of the ethics of advertising in dentistry [Historical Article]
Jerrold, L; Karkhanehchi, H
The authors "read" the historical dental codes prohibiting advertising and the U. S. Supreme Court decision striking down prohibitions against advertising by lawyers in Arizona, and by extension, professional advertising generally. The arguments presented in defense of prohibiting professional advertising and the court's responses to each are presented in detail. The current ADA code is analyzed in this context.
