Sažetak
In last ten years numerous reforms significantly affect the health care sector, its laws and regulations as well as the organizational structure of the healthcare profession in Croatia. The School of Dental Medicine at the University of Zagreb established a practically oriented ethics corse. 179 students enrolled in the Master s degree program were given a task to write an essay analyzing the most troubling everyday ethical concern they encountered in their past and more recent clinical practise. The aim of this paper is to present the preliminary research resoults and the data will be categorized according to the students perceived and reported ethical issues. The main goal of this paper is to enrich our future ethics curricula with the priority issues that dentists themselves identify as relevant for their everyday proffesional practise. These curricula would strenghten the future young dentists capacity to better understand the ethical dilemmas they could be facing in their professional life as well as increase their respect for patients rights and decisions.
