Maryland Law Will Require Owners of Private Dental Practice to Designate Supervising Dentist

The new law will require each owner of a private dental office to designate a licensed Dentist to be the supervising dentist for the private office, requires a supervising dentist to complete the registration required by the State Board of Dental Examiners and be responsible for all infection control activities within the private dental office, and authorizes the Board to charge a fee for the registration of a supervising Dentist.
