No Scaling Dental Assistant
 

THIS LEGISLATION IS NOT ABOUT ASSISTING. IT'S ABOUT REPLACING.

The goal of this legislation is to allow scaling assistants to perform the core procedure with hand & ultrasonic instrumentation without the education, licensure, or accountability of a dental hygienist.

  • This is not assistance this is substitution.
  • This is not collaboration-this is cutting costs.
  • This is not about patient-centered care-this is about production.
