What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

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.
