No to Assistants scaling
 

Dear Board of Dentistry,

  As a Registered Dental Hygienist who studied and was clinically trained for four years, I oppose ANY and ALL scaling duties for any assitant.  I do not believe that the Board has the best interest of the public at heart.  For the safety and the oral health of our Virginia patients, this proposition is unacceptable.
