Dentist’s Order and
Dentist-as-a-Witness Rule
ACHIEVED BY: Dr.Maen Dawodi
• Dentist’s Order :
is the prescription or order of the dentist whether verbal or written.
It is an indication of the dentist's professional autonomy he/she can
order and perform the treatment without the intervention of other
professionals such as a physician.
• It is not a mechanical act but an independent duty.
• This order can be directed to himself/herself or his/ her dental
assistant, dental hygienist, who performs it upon the former's
instruction or direction.
• Dentist-as-a-Witness Rule
The court may call a dentist to serve as witness to a case.
A dentist may be considered as an ordinary witness or an expert
witness. An ordinary witness is one who can testify as to the condition.
• There are two common type of expert witness :
1- Percipient or Fact Witness :
Who gives opinion based on actual facts or knowledge.
2- Non- Percipient or non-Fact Witness:
Who is not involved with the subject but is asked questions based on
hypothetical situations.
