Jurisprudence exam for Virginia Dentists
 

I believe this to be undo burden to have to do this every three years. The dentists applying for initial licensing should have to pass an initial jurisprudence exam. The existing dentists should be e-mailed all of the law changes directly. I would read them and abide by them as I believe most dentists would. I believe it is difficult enough to run our practices without additional layering of administrative requirements.
