Dear dental board members. Please consider the creation of a new dental assistant who will be trained to scale & polish class I dental patients to help with the shortage of dental hygienist in the state of Virginia. We need to train our assistants and hygienist to handle advanced procedures under direct supervision by the dentist to help the productivity and efficiency of our dentist. Thank you for your consideration of this matter.
