As a dentist who has practiced over 40 years in this state, I find this proposal to be very burdensome and an unnecessary hardship that the membership is asked to endure. The membership has continuously watched its rights and well-being challanged by a hostile board and this is just another example. There is an amazing disconnect between the Board and its membership.  Many of the Board's actions have produced just the problems which it (the Board) now seeks to address. If it were not for its liberal and biased policies of consumerism  through deminished skill set requirements and permissive advertising there would not be the problems which the Board now considers actionable. This is another classic example of the deprivation of individual rights in the guise of "fixing" a problem which the Board has created! Had standards been upheld in the past, the present problems would not have been created. There will continue to be a diminution of the "Dental Product' until the emphasis is returned to quality and not legality. Emphasis on the "Product" will always cure the legality issues.
