To further distribute workload for both the regulatory agency and the dental practices and to facilitate less credentialing burden with insurance companies and maslpractice carriers, a 2 year renewal period, with appropriate fee is indicated. Much like the 3 year renewal period for a DEA license this eases the administrative burden on practitioners and their staff. As there are regulatory pathways for disciplinary actions on a license irregardless of the length of renewal period this seems to be the most efficient pathway. Our Board should be run as a business as our practices.  Dr. Morrison
