Professional responsibility in sports dentistry.
Our professional responsibility related to sports dentistry extends beyond the office. By our active involvement in continuing dental education, we can become more knowledgeable in this relatively new area of sports dentistry. Although it is still in its infancy, sports dentistry is an ever-expanding field. As dentists in practice, whether as general practitioners, specialists, academicians, or researchers, each one of us has a professional responsibility to become involved. Sports dentistry is certain to be a part of our future.
