Abstract: Introduction:Ethics is a part of philosophy that deals with moral conduct and judgement. It is philosophy of human conduct, a way of stating and evaluating principles by which problems of behavior can be solved. Dental jurisprudence refers to set of legal regulations set forth by legislative bodies of each state. These legislation describes the legal limitations and regulations related to the practice of dentistry, dental hygiene and dental assisting. Objective: (1) To evaluate the knowledge ,attitude and awareness among dental practitioners about dental ethics and jurisprudence and its application in dental practice. (2) To asses the awareness of dental practitioners about Consumer protection act (COPRA) Material and methods: A cross-sectional , questionnaire based study was conducted on a total of 300 dentists. To get a the required sample size pilot study was conducted on 25 individuals. Simple random sampling method was used to get the sample. The study consistent of 34 close-ended questionnaire which were divided into two sections. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS. Results: The results revealed that about 66% of dentists were aware that Dentist act came into force in the year 1976 and 71% knew that the dentists (Code of ethics) regulation was given by the Dental Council of India. Only 42% knew that it is not unethical for a dental surgeon to supply or sell drugs related to dentistry in his clinic. 52% responded correctly that it is necessary to obtain informed consent for clinical examination and routine radiography. 21% of respondents were not aware of professional indemnity insurance. Conclusion: The study suggests that while dental practitioners generally have a grasp of dental ethics, their understanding of legal principles and it’s application in dental practice requires enhancement. Although recommendations can influence dental professionals' conduct, significant progress may necessitate alterations in legislation and social policies.
