Opposition to additional required infection control training for dental assistants
 

Dental offices already have required  annual OSHA  training and CDC guidelines being implemented in the office. This proposed regulation is therefore redundant and adds an extra burden on an already stretched dental practice .No infection has been shown to have been transmitted from a dental office in this state.
