Abstract
The 2024 Ethics Summit, Breaking Down the Silos, convened by the American College of Dentists, marked a pivotal moment in the ongoing discourse on the ethical responsibilities of oral healthcare professionals. This distinguished gathering of interprofessional experts offered an insightful and urgent exploration into one of healthcare’s most pressing yet underexamined ethical imperatives: the moral obligation to fully integrate oral health into the broader healthcare system. The summit’s focus aligns powerfully with the mission of the American College of Dentists to advance excellence, ethics, professionalism, and leadership in oral healthcare.
