Paediatric dentistry questions combine clinical management with age-appropriate considerations — LA dosing by weight, behaviour management. This exam-level vignette tests your ability to work through clinical details and arrive at the correct management.
A dentist creates a website for their cosmetic dental practice. The website features the tagline 'Sydney's #1 Cosmetic Dentist — Guaranteed Perfect Smile', patient testimonials (with consent), before-and-after photographs of cosmetic cases, and no mention of risks associated with the procedures advertised. In the same practice, the dentist routinely orders CBCT scans for all new patients regardless of clinical indication, and prescribes the most expensive ceramic restoration option even when more conservative and equally effective alternatives exist. According to the Code, this practice pattern:
- A. Is acceptable because practitioners have clinical autonomy to order investigations and recommend treatments based on their professional judgement without external constraint
- B. Is only problematic if the patient has not consented to the additional costs, as informed financial consent removes any ethical concern about the clinical decisions themselves
- C. Is problematic only in public or government-funded settings where resource allocation affects other patients — in private practice, the patient alone bears the cost and the decision is solely between practitioner and patient
- D. Is inconsistent with the Code's requirement to ensure services are not excessive or unnecessary and to make responsible use of available resources

Show the answer and cited explanation
Section 5.2a requires practitioners to ensure that services provided are appropriate and not excessive, unnecessary, or not reasonably required. Section 2.2l requires making responsible and effective use of available resources. These obligations apply in all practice settings, not only public health. Option A overstates clinical autonomy — it is bounded by the Code's resource stewardship obligations. Option B incorrectly treats financial consent as resolving the ethical issue — consent does not make unnecessary investigations appropriate. Option C fabricates a public/private distinction — the Code applies these obligations universally.
