RDH California Dental Law and Ethics Practice Exam

RDH California Dental Law and Ethics Practice Quiz

After creating a study guide for the California Dental Law and Ethics Exam for Dentists, many hygienists were asking if they could use that guide to study for the California Dental Hygiene Law and Ethics Exam. While there are some similarities, these tests are quite different, so I did not recommend that dental hygienists use that study guide I created for dentists. Over the last several years we have collected feedback from dental hygienists, and in 2022, we decided to create a study guide for the California Dental Hygiene Law and Ethics Exam.

You can find the study guide and practice test for the exam on Embrasure Space by clicking on the button below.

Take me to the Study Guide

This is a quick quiz designed to test your knowledge for the California RDH Law and Ethics Exam.

While performing prophylaxis, your patient experiences a heart attack. Emergency response is activated, and the patient is transported to the hospital. Later that evening, the patient died. Under these circumstances:

You have no obligation to report this event to the Dental Hygiene Committee.

You must report the incident to the Dental Hygiene Committee within 30 days.

Bill’s last exam was 5 years ago because he does not have dental insurance. Dr. Harold (your employer) is aware of the situation and allows the patient to continue scheduling cleanings with you since you were hired 12 months ago.

You should not say anything and complete the prophy as the patient requests.

You should take the x-rays despite the patient's objections.

You should discuss the situation with Dr. Harold and consider dismissing Bill from the practice.

Bill has the right to choose when and how he will receive treatment.
