Dear Board of Dentistry Members,
Please consider allowing the Dental Assistant II level to do Type I periodontal scaling. It will not take away work form the hygienists. The assistants at the proposed level can be trained to perform those duties as they now do with the Indian Health Service of the Federal Government.
