In favor of Petition
 

I believe this would be great for both Dentists and Assistants. From my understanding, Certified Dental Assistants have been through one to two years of school already and I feel if they are able to pass a National Board test the I would be capable and qualified enough to observe and decide if an assistant is up to par. Ultimately, as a dentist, I would be liable for any work an assistant performed wile working under my license.
