[Teenager information on orthodontics with fixed appliances].

Thoughts and questions are proposed on the reality of consent by adolescents. This reflection, ethical in nature, confronts the medico-legal facet of the care contract, which is specific when minors are concerned, with the psychological aspect, so particular when an adolescent is involved. How do we treat adolescents who have not reached their majority? Beyond this quasi-philosophical questioning on the inter-human care relationship, we put forward very practical elements towards answers.
