What it does
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
Under current law, no person may practice dentistry or dental hygiene unless the person is licensed by the Dental Examining Board (board) to practice dentistry or dental hygiene. This bill authorizes the board to issue a permit to practice dentistry or dental hygiene, without compensation, for a period of not more than ten days in a year and in a specified area, if the person is licensed to practice dentistry or dental hygiene in another state. The board must determine that the person's services will improve the welfare of residents of this state and that the person is qualified and satisfies current criteria for obtaining a permanent license in this state based on licensure in another state. The board may not require an examination on state statutes and rules relating to dentistry or dental hygiene. Under the bill, the board may renew a permit but may not charge a fee for issuance or renewal.
