Case 11.4: Consenting to Sexual Harassment
This is a case that can, of course, apply to any workplace. To put it in the clinic, simply
imagine it going on between a male dentist and a female hygienist. (This would be more
common arrangement, but it could be reversed). Or it could happen between a dentist and
the receptionist, or lab tech, etc.
Case 11.5 Facial Discrimination
An interesting exercise! Instead of internships, imagine that you are interviewing for a
hygienist or a receptionist. Or perhaps you are interviewing college students who are
interested in shadowing in your clinic. What role would looks play? What if the person
had questionable oral hygiene?
