Jurisprudence
 

I strongly feel the Jurisprudence exam should be completed by all new Licenses.  The majority of the Dentists in the Commonwealth abide by those rules.  If a Dentist breaks the rules and is subject to punishment by the BOD then they should be required to retake the exam.  It should also be available to take on a voluntary basis with no penalty for those who want to brush up on the regulations.  I do not feel the whole should be penalized for the mistakes of the few
