I support this Amendment
 

I am in support of this amendment for Dentists to be able to administer Botox and Fillers. I believe proper certification should be required prior to doing this, in the same manner as something like sedation. Dentists have extensive knowledge of the facial, head and neck anatomy, as well as daily experience with giving injections. With proper training, I believe this could enhance the practice of dentistry. Many other states authorize general dentists to administer Botox.
