AB This study reports on an experiment to determine whether dentists would,
in actual office practice, be willing to treat men they perceive to be
homosexual. The data show an overwhelming percentage of dentists to be
homophobic in some degree and a majority felt they did not have an
ethical obligation to treat AIDS patients. However, the study found that
an even larger majority of dentists would treat persons with AIDS. And
strikingly, only 1 dentist actually refused to treat a patient who was
perceived to be homosexual and at high risk of AIDS.
