Orthodontics is typically a specialty discipline for doctors of dentistry. Dentists have a code of ethics akin to their medical school counterparts' Hippocratic Oath. Dentists affirm and pledge the American Dental Association Code of Ethics.
The Code of Ethics was adopted by the American Medical Association (AMA) in 1847. It was established to provide a framework for ethical medical practice and to guide physicians in their professional conduct. Over the years, the Code has been updated to reflect changes in society, technology, and medical advancements.
