No to DA II scaling
 

The comments made that this idea would help patients in rural areas of Virginia are incorrect, because the patients in rural areas are not being served because precious few dentists' practice in rural areas because it is not as profitable,  so how would having multiple assistants scaling help access to dental care for patients?
