Article Synopsis
- Respecting patient autonomy is essential in medicine, but can clash with the principles of beneficence (doing good) and nonmaleficence (doing no harm), especially in complex cases like oral health care.

- The results showed that while most recommendations leaned towards prioritizing medical benefits for the patient, there were also instances where patient autonomy was upheld, particularly for preventive care or low-impact interventions.

This article presents a comprehensive neuroethical framework that seeks to deepen our understanding of human consciousness and free will, particularly in the context of psychiatric and neurological disorders. By integrating insights from neuroscience with philosophical reflections on freedom and personal identity, the paper examines how various states of consciousness from interoception to self-awareness influence an individual's autonomy and decision-making capabilities. The discussion utilizes a multidimensional, bottom-up approach to explore how neurobiological processes underlie different levels of conscious experience and their corresponding types of freedom, such as "intero-freedom" related to internal bodily states and "self-freedom" associated with higher self-awareness.
