What changed in the latest version
10 added · 100 removedPlain-language change summary
The amended version of SB 1073 requires that anyone applying for a dental license must now include their Social Security Number on their application. This change is important because it helps the state verify the identity of applicants and reduces fraud in the licensing process. Additionally, the previous restrictions on where dental hygienists can work have been removed, allowing them more flexibility in their employment settings while still ensuring they work under the supervision of a dentist. This could help increase job opportunities for dental hygienists and improve access to dental care.
