| How to Terminate Care without the Risk of a Suit |
| There comes a time in every dentist's practice when the best course of action to follow is to terminate the care of a patient before the care is completed. To do so without following some strict rules, both in law and interpersonal relationships, may lead to considerable difficulty for the dentist. |

|
| Opportunities in Associate Practice |
| The opportunity to become a partner with an established dentist immediately following professional training is remote, as is the opportunity to become a shareholder in a PC or PA. The other professional relationships are more likely to occur. By far, the most common is employer/employee. |
