3 added · 3 removedPlain-language change summary
The revised version of HB 346 now includes a new section allowing dentists to obtain a temporary permit to practice in place of an incapacitated dentist. This change is significant because it ensures that patients can continue to receive dental care, even if their regular dentist is temporarily unable to work due to health issues. The bill also outlines the specific qualifications and conditions under which these temporary permits can be issued, helping to maintain high standards within the profession.
